Impressive rookie season for Mr. Sneed.

Top rookie: L'Jarius Sneed, Kansas City Chiefs
Grade: 73.9

It was a rough year for rookie cornerbacks in general, but that didn't extend to the Chiefs' fourth-round pick out of Louisiana Tech. Sneed missed a big chunk of the season due to injury, but he was one of the more productive NFL cornerbacks when healthy. Among all cornerbacks who saw at least 25 targets during the regular season, Sneed ranked third with a 53.4 passer rating, behind only Bryce Callahan (46.9) and Xavien Howard (53.0). That feat was even more impressive because he split his time almost evenly between the slot (171 snaps) and out wide (164 snaps).
