J.C. Jackson and Stephon Gilmore are the best cornerbacks to play for the New England Patriots in recent years.
Both of these elite defenders had the opportunity to play against each other in the 2022 NFL Pro Bowl. Jackson and Gilmore spent three seasons together in Foxborough and they created a strong relationship during that time. Gilmore was traded to the Carolina Panthers in the middle of the season and it left Jackson with the No. 1 role — which he took over and dominated.
The two of them got together during the Pro Bowl and took a photo that Patriots fans will appreciate.

Jackson is entering free agency and will be a huge priority for the Patriots to figure out this offseason.
