CINCINNATI — Former Bearcats star Sauce Gardner has quickly become one of the top cornerbacks in the NFL. The Jets are hoping to make a playoff run this season with Gardner on defense and a healthy Aaron Rodgers on offense.

Gardner and Rodgers have become good friends over the past year that they've been teammates. The Bearcats legend posted a photo of them on Twitter/X. He says they were practicing their downswing, but it sure looks like they have a new handshake.
