Falcons’ A.J. Terrell cracks top 5 in TD Wire’s CB rankings

Atlanta Falcons CB A.J. Terrell was ranked in the top 5 of Touchdown Wire’s outside cornerback rankings.

After an outstanding 2021 campaign, Falcons cornerback A.J. Terrell has gone from one of the NFL’s most underrated players to being recognized as one of the very best at his position.

Terrell allowed just 29 catches on 66 targets (43.9 percent completion rate when targeted), while adding 51 solo tackles, 13 passes defended, three interceptions and a Pro Football Focus coverage grade of 85.6 last season. Touchdown Wire’s Doug Farrar has been ranking the top 12 players at each position group entering the 2022 season.

In Farrar’s latest feature, he ranks the NFL’s best outside cornerbacks and Terrell lands at No. 4 on his list.
