When we last left Sauce Gardner, he was playfully marching off Lambeau Field wearing a cheesehead after the Jets upset the Packers last Sunday.
In the aftermath of the incident, a number of emails flooded my inbox from readers chastising Gardner as a cocky kid rubbing the loss in the faces of his opponents.
When Gardner accidentally walked into the Packers tunnel, Green Bay receiver Allen Lazard came up from behind him and slapped the cheesehead off his head. But Lazard made it clear to reporters afterward that he wasn’t upset with Gardner, in fact saying he’d have probably done the same thing. This is how young, raw and refreshing Gardner is: When speaking of Jeudy, who’s just 23 and in his third NFL season, Gardner revealed that, when he was a beanpole high-school receiver, he used to study Jeudy’s moves and emulate them.
D.J. Reed, a veteran offseason free-agent acquisition who starts opposite Gardner, called Sauce “super humble, but at the same time he knows he’s very good as far as what God has blessed him with.’’Gardner isn’t a player who relies solely on his physical skills. He’s a student of the game, a rabid film watcher — much the same way Darrelle Revis, the greatest Jets cornerback ever, operated.
