2024 Fantasy Outlook
Gardner has already established himself as arguably the best cornerback in the NFL, posting consecutive first team All-Pro seasons in his first two campaigns after being drafted fourth overall by the Jets in 2022. The Jets secondary is likely to remain elite with Gardner leading the way, but unfortunately for fantasy purposes, quarterbacks know Sauce's elite reputation and rarely test him. Gardner has only two career interceptions and dipped to 11 passes defensed in 2023 after leading the league with 20 as a rookie. Read Past Outlooks
Snags game-sealing pick
Gardner logged five tackles (two solo), two pass deflections and an interception during the Jets' win Sunday versus the Jaguars.
ANALYSIS
Gardner picked off Mac Jones with under a minute left to clinch the victory for the Jets, his first interception since 2022. The 24-year-old also racked up five tackles, which match his season-high total set back during the team's Week 5 loss versus the Broncos.

Past Fantasy Outlooks
2023
2022
Gardner took home Defensive Rookie of the Year honors in 2022, as the fourth overall pick out of Cincinnati led the league with 20 passes defensed while adding 75 tackles (51 solo) and two interceptions. He will likely be a better player on the field than in fantasy in 2023, as opposing quarterbacks will be loath to throw in Sauce's direction after his standout rookie campaign. Gardner and fellow cornerback D.J. Reed figure to make life difficult on wide receivers again after the Jets allowed a league-low 1,857 yards to the position in 2022.
