The New York Giants receiver actually bests the Washington Redskins cornerback in head-to-head match-ups. That much appears to be factual according to the football evaluation site, Pro Football Focus.
Now, one Beckham – Norman narrative has been that Norman is garbage. Simply put, I’m no fan of trash-talking cornerbacks (see Sherman, Richard), so this may be my only defense of Norman ever. Statistically, Norman ranks as a top 5 corner in the league.
In fact, along with Sherman, Norman likely belongs as one of the top 3 cornerbacks in the NFL.
