The only other current Green Bay Packers player on the roster that has been ranked on the Top 100 NFL players of 2022 was running back Aaron Jones at No. 64.
A season ago, Jaire Alexander was not ranked in the NFL Top 100 because he only appeared in four games played in 2021 due to injury. He was ranked 41st on the list before the 2021 season began.
That is a massive jump for him, going from unranked to number 26 on the list. There were seven cornerbacks on the list that were named before him. The only cornerback that is currently ahead of him on this list is New York Jets cornerback Sauce Gardner, coming in at No. 23.
There are only 20 more players to go on this list, and it will be interesting to see how many more cornerbacks go ahead of Alexander. He was also all-pro for the second time in his career this season, and this was the first time this has happened since the 2020 season. According to PFF, he allowed a passer rating of 66.1 into his coverage last season.
