You’d be hard-pressed to find a cornerback who enjoyed a better 2020 season than Jalen Ramsey. In his first full year with the Rams, he earned an All-Pro selection and shut down some of the top receivers in the NFL.
From Amari Cooper to DeAndre Hopkins, and DK Metcalf to Mike Evans, Ramsey erased just about every wideout who lined up across from him. And based on his Instagram message Friday, he’s ready to do it again, too.
Ramsey posted on social media that he can’t wait to erase fans’ favorite receivers again in 2021. On his list of potential matchups this year are Hopkins and Metcalf again, as well as Justin Jefferson, A.J. Brown, Mike Evans and Chris Godwin, and Kenny Golladay.
Ramsey is never lacking confidence, and why would he? He was the best cornerback in the league last season, allowing just 36 catches on 71 targets for a measly 345 yards and two touchdowns.
Those numbers are exactly what the Rams hoped to get out of the All-Pro cornerback when they gave up two first-round picks for him in 2019. And suffice to say, that trade has paid off beautifully for Les Snead and the Rams.
