Arguably the a top-three cornerback in the NFL for better part of the past decade, Darrelle Revis seems to be having his island invaded by pirates.
Revis had arguably the worst game of his career Week 1 vs Cincinnati, getting thrown towards 10 times, all 10 of those being caught. Andy Dalton had a perfect quarterback rating throwing to Revis’ side.
Less than a week later, Revis is getting burned again. On the opening defensive possession for the Jets, Revis got burned by Marquis Goodwin for an 84-yard touchdown pass from Tyrod Taylor.
Tyrod goes DEEEEEEEP.@flashg88dwin beats Revis for an 84 yard TD!
WOW. #TNF #NYJvsBUF https://t.co/cwnT5bPB2K https://t.co/RmkMWM443U

Jets insiders noted Revis came into this season still out of shape from offseason surgery recovery, which may be true, but it seems as father time may be creeping in.
