The Jacksonville Jaguars may have had an incredibly disappointing season in 2018, but Jalen Ramsey and A.J. Bouye remained one of the top cornerback tandems in football.
Check out this graphic from Pro Football Focus, which highlights how the duo allowed just two touchdown passes all year long:

Ramsey is widely considered one of the top defensive backs in the NFL and is coming off of a 2018 campaign in which he played in all 16 games and registered 65 tackles, three interceptions and 13 passes defended en route to his second straight Pro Bowl appearance.
The 24-year-old, who played his collegiate football at Florida State University, was originally selected by the Jaguars with the fifth overall pick of the 2016 NFL Draft.
He has never missed a game in his NFL career, and in his first season, he registered 65 tackles, a couple of picks, a forced fumble, 14 passes defended and a defensive touchdown.
Then, in 2017, Ramsey had his best year to date, totaling 63 stops, four interceptions and 17 passes defended, making the Pro Bowl and earning a First-Team All-Pro selection.
Bouye joined the Jaguars as a free agent in March 2017, and in his first year with the club, he logged 56 tackles, six picks and 18 passes defended, making the Pro Bowl as a result.
This past season, the 27-year-old posted 54 tackles and an interception.
The Jaguars won just five games in 2018, one year after totaling 10 victories and making it all the way to the AFC Championship Game before blowing a late lead and ultimately falling to the New England Patriots.
