[Jackson], they’re gonna jump all the routes,” the Rams’ star CB said. “I hate it when people compare me and Trevon. We play completely different. Like I always play out of phase.

Trevon Diggs had a dream season in 2021 when he recorded 11 INTs. However, he did give up more than 1000 yards which some critics thought was not worth the picks. When Ryan Clark highlight that Diggs gave up more than 1000 yards, Ramsey said, “That’s because he always plays in-phase.”

“But he also had 11, 12, maybe 13 picks. He [takes chances]. It’s just a different style of how he plays. If you’re a guy who plays in-phase a lot, you’re gonna have to have a lot of picks. Which he does, though! So it’s working out for him, he’s one of the best at doing that.” That’s high praise coming from one of the most elite CB for Trevon Diggs who’s just in his second year in the league.
