 Rookie Revis Shines In Jets Debut
Quote:
Darrelle Revis jogged out of the stadium tunnel with his New York Jets teammates and felt a few jitters before his first NFL start.
The rookie cornerback says he was a bit nervous, but once the first play was over, he was ready to go. Revis made a handful of nice plays in the Jets 20-12 victory over the Giants on Saturday night and showed flashes of why they traded up to draft him Number 14 overall in April.
He was expected to compete for a starting job when the Jets drafted him, and that looked less likely as his holdout wore on. Once he got to camp, Revis received a crash course in the defense and made a smooth transition, working with the starters at left cornerback while Andre Dyson and Justin Miller sat out with injuries.
On Saturday, Revis found himself in the starting lineup against the Giants after less than a week of practices.
