If there's one thing New York Jets cornerback Sauce Gardner isn't lacking, it's confidence. The fourth overall pick of the 2022 draft burst onto the scene with a rookie year that included a Pro Bowl selection, a first-team All-Pro nod, and a Defensive Rookie of the Year Trophy.
From that point forward, he seemed ordained to become one of the game's biggest stars. 2023 was more of the same, and while there were some hiccups in 2024, the Jets avoided a catastrophe fans know all too well and locked up their young star for life with a record-breaking contract extension.
