Cardinals

Jets

Jets CB Darrelle Revis discussed his decline from undisputed number one corner due to age with Kimberley Martin.

You’ve got to enjoy it and you’ve got to adjust to the way people view you,“Revis said. “It shows you how fast you do grow up in this league and how old you become.

When I was 24, 25, people were like, ‘You’re the shutdown corner.’ Now, people are like, ‘He’s the G.O.A.T.’ or they call me ‘Uncle Drew.’ They call me ‘Uncle Buck.’ They’ve got all these crazy ‘Uncle’ or older vet-type of names. It’s cool, though.

Revis also acknowledged the possibility of a move from corner to safety at some point, should his play decline.

Playing the corner position, you’re out there by yourself,” Revis said. “You have to hold up, and play it well. And eventually, you’re going to have to say one year or before the year starts, ‘Hey, I might need to move my position because I feel like I can’t play this position anymore.’ I wish I could have the fountain of youth and be 24 years old forever, but eventually, as you get older, you have to adjust to what your body’s telling you.

Redskins
