Ahmad 'Sauce' Gardner has become first rookie cornerback in 41 years to be named to the first-team All-Pro roster, which was announced by the NFL on Friday evening.
Voted for by sports journalists from major organisations across the United States, the All-Pro teams feature the best players in each position.
Gardner, the fourth overall pick by the New York Jets, was named on all 50 ballots by voters, receiving 43 first-place votes and landing on the first time. He becomes the first rookie at the position to do so since, Hall of Famer Ronnie Lott, who made the All-Pro team in his rookie season in 1981.
