Marshon Lattimore

2025 stats: 9 games, 27 tackles, 7 passes defensed, 1 interception

At his best, Lattimore is one of the league's best cornerbacks. But injuries have hampered him the past several years and he's coming off an ACL tear. Lattimore hasn't played more than 10 games in a season since 2021.

Trevon Diggs

2025 stats: 9 games, 27 tackles, 0 passes defensed, 0 interceptions

The Cowboys released the two-time Pro Bowler near the end of last season and he was scooped up by the Packers. They released him after their first-round playoff exit. Diggs' ball production separated him, as he led the league with a whopping 11 interceptions in 2021. However, he's had just six interceptions in four seasons since.

Jamel Dean

2025 stats: 14 games, 46 tackles, 9 passes defensed, 3 interceptions

Dean may be the best cornerback on the open market. He finished last season with the fourth-highest Pro Football Focus grade among all starting NFL cornerbacks, and he helped lead the Bucs to a Super Bowl win in 2021.

Tariq Woolen

2025 stats: 16 games, 41 tackles, 12 passes defensed, 1 interception

Woolen was an instant hit, reaching the Pro Bowl as a fifth-round rookie in 2022 when he posted six interceptions. It hasn't been as smooth since, but Woolen is coming off a Super Bowl win, is still physically intriguing at 6-foot-4, and is just 26 years old.

Jaylen Watson

2025 stats: 15 games, 64 tackles, 6 passes defensed, 2 interceptions

Watson was an instant hit despite being a seventh-round pick in 2022. He rounded into a full-time starter in his third season and was dominant at times last year, finishing with the 10th-best PFF grade among all NFL starting cornerbacks.

Eric Stokes

2025 stats: 16 games, 53 tackles, 5 passes defensed, 1 interception

A former first-round pick of the Packers in 2021, Stokes was a full-time and healthy starter for the Raiders last season. He turned in a strong campaign, ranking 13th by PFF among all starting NFL cornerbacks. Stokes can blanket receivers, but he only has one interception over five seasons, and his five pass breakups last year were his first since his rookie year.

Greg Newsome II

2025 stats: 17 games, 52 tackles, 9 passes defensed, 1 interception

Another 2021 first-round pick, Newsome was a consistent performer for the Browns over four-plus seasons, but they traded him midseason to the Jaguars. Newsome allowed a career-high five touchdowns on the year, per PFF.

Tre'Davious White

2025 stats: 16 games, 40 tackles, 10 passes defensed, 1 interception

After a strong second half of the 2024 season with the Ravens, White parlayed it into a starting gig for the Bills last year. It was his first time being a full-time starter since 2021, and he did well, ranking 39th among all starting NFL cornerbacks. His season ended, however, with a costly pass interference call in the Bills' AFC playoff loss in Denver.

Montaric Brown

2025 stats: 15 games, 51 tackles, 12 passes defensed, 2 interceptions

It was a breakout season for Brown, who went from a seventh-round pick in 2022 to one of the top cornerbacks in the league last season, ranking 18th from PFF.

Jonathan Jones

2025 stats: 12 games, 41 tackles, 5 passes defensed, 0 interceptions

After spending his first nine seasons with the Patriots, Jones went to Washington last season and had a tougher season. He's given up a career-high 13.4 yards per reception in back-to-back years.

Amik Robertson

2025 stats: 17 games, 52 tackles, 12 passes defensed, 1 interception

Robertson posted his lowest PFF grades since his rookie year in his second season with the Lions. He's a 5-foot-9 slot cornerback.

Jeff Okudah

2025 stats: 6 games, 14 tackles, 0 passes defensed, 0 interceptions

Okudah was the third-overall pick in the 2020 Draft but hasn't panned out. He became a full-time starter in 2022, his final season with the Lions, and has since bounced to the Falcons, Texans, and Vikings. He's played just 12 games over the past two seasons.

Roger McCreary

2025 stats: 14 games, 37 tackles, 2 passes defensed, 1 interception

McCreary was a midseason addition for the Rams last season after being traded from the Titans to Los Angeles. A former second-round pick out of Auburn, McCreary allowed 10.2 yards per catch in 2025.

Josh Jobe

2025 stats: 16 games, 54 tackles, 12 passes defensed, 1 interception

Jobe signed with the Seahawks' practice squad in 2024 and blossomed into a Super Bowl starter. A former undrafted free agent, the 5-foot-11, 190-pound Jobe began his career with the Philadelphia Eagles for two years and could be in line for a payday.

Alontae Taylor

2025 stats: 17 games, 83 tackles, 11 passes defensed, 2 interceptions

Taylor is set to hit the open market after spending his first four seasons in New Orleans. A former second-round pick out of Tennessee, Taylor has 53 starts under his belt and is just 27 years old.

Rasul Douglas

2025 stats: 15 games, 62 tackles, 13 passes defensed, 2 interceptions

The 30-year-old Douglas has been on five teams over his nine seasons in the league. He spent last season with the Miami Dolphins, starting 13 games, and has 21 career interceptions.

Dee Alford

2025 stats: 16 games, 67 tackles, 13 passes defensed, 3 interceptions

Alford came into Atlanta as an undrafted free agent and has proven himself as a starting cornerback. The 5-foot-11 had career-high marks in passes defensed, interceptions, and sacks (two) in 2025.

Cam Taylor-Britt

2025 stats: 8 games, 21 tackles, 5 passes defensed, 0 interceptions

Taylor-Britt went down with a season-ending foot injury in November. The former second-round pick has started in 40 of 47 career games during his time in Cincinnati.

Cor'Dale Flott

2025 stats: 14 games, 38 tackles, 11 passes defensed, 1 interception

Flott started in every game he appeared in for the Giants last season with the second-most pass deflections on the team.

Asante Samuel Jr.

2025 stats: 6 games, 10 tackles, 1 pass defensed, 1 interception

Samuel underwent spinal fusion surgery last offseason, forcing him to miss the majority of the season. After signing with the Steelers practice squad in November, Samuel helped provide depth to the defensive back room in Pittsburgh, starting in three games.

Chidobe Awuzie

2025 stats: 14 games, 43 tackles, 7 passes defensed, 0 interceptions

Awuzie was a critical depth piece in the Ravens' secondary last season. He made several clutch plays but ultimately gave up a game-winning touchdown pass after slipping in the AFC North title game. If Baltimore doesn't re-sign Awuzie, the nine-year veteran will join his fourth team in four years after starting his career with the Cowboys.

Jack Jones

2025 stats: 17 games, 77 tackles, 6 passes defensed, 1 interception

Jones started in all 17 games last season for the Dolphins. A former fourth-round pick by the Patriots, the 5-foot-11, 175-pound Jones was previously with the Raiders for two seasons before his one-year stint in Miami.

Nahshon Wright

2025 stats: 17 games, 80 tackles, 11 passes defensed, 5 interceptions

Wright tied for the second-most interceptions in the league last season as a key member of the Chicago Bears defense, which had the most takeaways in 2025. Wright is on the taller side at 6-foot-4 and should command significant interest after a career year.

James Pierre

2025 stats: 14 games, 30 tackles, 11 passes defensed, 1 interception

Pierre has been with the Steelers for the first six years of his career after joining the team as an undrafted free agent. Pierre is Lamar Jackson's cousin, and his lone interception last season was on a Jackson pass.
