HOUSTON -- When the Houston Texans let cornerback A.J. Bouye walk in free agency, they were hoping 2015 first-round pick Kevin Johnson could step up and replace his production.

Johnson missed four weeks with a sprained MCL, but even when he's been healthy, he has been inconsistent. Meanwhile in Jacksonville, Bouye has continued his form from 2016 and has thrived alongside second-year star Jalen Ramsey to form an elite cornerback duo.

Bouye is tied for the NFL lead in interceptions with six, and he has broken up an additional 10 passes.
