xen 1,010,220 Posted January 6, 2021 Share Posted January 6, 2021 Named to pff all rookie team https://www.pff.com/news/nfl-all-rookie-team-chargers-justin-herbert-qb-vikings-justin-jefferson-washington-chase-young From a statistical standpoint, no rookie cornerback came close to matching the season that Sneed had for the Chiefs. He allowed just 214 passing yards into his coverage on 45 targets, and those targets yielded a passer rating of just 53.4 — third-lowest of any cornerback to be targeted at least 30 times this season behind only Bryce Callahan (46.9) and Xavien Howard (53.0). Sneed also showed the ability to play both outside (164 snaps) and inside in the slot (171 snaps) with different roles before and after an injury that held him out from Week 4 through Week 10. All of that led to a wins above replacement mark that was nearly double the next closest rookie cornerback. The Chiefs couldn’t have hoped for much more from the fourth-round pick out of Louisiana Tech. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

xen 1,010,220 Posted January 6, 2021 Author Share Posted January 6, 2021 CB play is volatile year over year. Very few corners are consistent year to year. He looks like he has a chance to be one of them... speed kills y'all. Very impressive that he learned to play nickel corner while recovering from the injury, with no game snaps at the position until he started there. That may be the hardest position on this defense to play. Kudos to Sneed. oldtimer and West 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sith13 1,746 Posted January 7, 2021 Share Posted January 7, 2021 I hope we keep the DB coaching in town, they have been doing a remarkable job. Sneed has been a stud from day one so he already had the talent coming in but definitely getting better every day. West 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cornerback is by far the most volatile position group as far as performance year over year. Receivers are too good, play callers are getting more creative, and the rules work against them. If he does it again next year he'll be beating the odds and we may have something special. There's really only a few guys in the league that don't have high variance in performance.
