There was a time when NFL offenses knew that when their wide receiver was going to be matched up against cornerback Darrelle Revis, they might as well forget about throwing his way all game long. They even gave that concept a nickname: wide receivers getting trapped on “Revis Island.” But as Revis got older, his athleticism began to diminish, and he suddenly became much more vulnerable than we were accustomed to. After winning a Super Bowl ring in New England, Revis returned home to the New York Jets, where they found he was merely a shell of the guy they were so familiar with. He was briefly out of the NFL prior to the 2017 season, before signing with the Kansas City Chiefs.
