No. 0 · 4th season

Peer recognition in this league is different. Fans vote online; coaches and scouts vote with their careers on the line.

Christian Gonzalez plays cornerback for the New England Patriots — one of the hardest positions in football, where your mistakes happen in front of everyone and your wins often go unnoticed. He has not gone unnoticed. In a survey of coaches, executives, and scouts conducted by ESPN, Gonzalez was voted the third-best cornerback in the NFL.

Third in the whole league. Judged not by the crowd but by the people who game-plan around players like him.

For a player still building his name in New England, that number carries weight. The people whose jobs depend on knowing who the real threats are — they know.
