We were not going to rank any player who has only played two seasons, but with Sauce Gardner, we are making an exception.  The 2022 Defensive Rookie of the Year, is the second coming of Darrelle Revis, and he has already netted two First Team All-Pros.  Gardner does not have an island on the field; he has a planet!

*Gardner has only played two seasons.

Haason Reddick had his first double-digit Sack year in 2020 as an Arizona Cardinal, repeated that as a Carolina Panther in 2021, but had his best season to date in his first year in Philadelphia, where he had 16 Sacks and was the league-leader in Forced Fumbles (5).  A Pro Bowl that year, Reddick was again last season with his fourth straight 10-plus sack year (11), which netted him his second Pro Bowl.

The Eagles traded Reddick to the New York Jets, where he has refused to play as of this writing.  Making a Hall of Fame case is hard when you are inactive.
