After winning NFL’s Defensive Rookie of the Year and earning 1st Team All Pro rankings in his debut season, Sauce Gardner is looking to get back with his team and become a leader not just on the field but one outside of football through his work ethic and lifestyle.
With an unprecedented rookie year for the Jets cornerback and the first rookie in 41 years to make 1st team All-Pro, Sauce attributes his playmaking abilities and consistency to playing the game with passion and focus. With a young roster full of grit, Sauce said the team is more motivated and committed to winning after coming up short last year and putting the pieces in place for that success.
Being one of the core people who helped draw the attention of Aaron Rodgers to New York, Sauce has developed a close bond with the quarterback and talks how being in the Jets’ locker room has made him feel young again and the team is ready to make a Super Bowl run.
As the summer was filled with buzz of whether or not the Jets would be featured on the NFL’s Hard Knocks series, the league announced this week that the team and NFL Films are moving forward with the Emmy award series returning back to New York. The now 2nd year corner back weighs in on his thoughts and how the team will be perceived with cameras around 24/7.
Sauce shares how his upbringing and relationship with his mother shaped him into the man he is today and how having some adversity young motivated him to be more focused on his goals as he advanced.
Tap in every Tuesday at noon eastern for our premiere episode of the Pivot. Special seasonal drops on Friday afternoons at 3:30 pm. We are your one-stop platform for all your sports and entertainment content. Stay tuned for updates on upcoming Pivot special episodes!

As a life long 24 y/o jet fan I can honestly say this kid is the best thing to happen to us since revis. Real humble and clearly has ten toes firmly on the ground. Respect 💪🏼

As a lifelong Titans fan, Asante Samuel must’ve been smoking dope if he thinks Revis isn’t that guy. His name is his name 🏝️

Great interview with an amazing young man! And he doesn’t even have to swear to be cool. Great DB and work ethic - we Jets fans are blessed to have him. Can’t wait to watch him this year. Do hope Coach Saleh (whose brother was in the twin towers on 9/11) talks and explains it to all the young guys that were under 5 when it happened! Awesome podcast!

[@MichiganHendough]

swearing is a expression not always tryna be cool

[@seanfrank32]

I just realized Sauce grew up in Detroit during ARod's career. He watched him first hand.

[@jaseallenson316]

And now, he is gonna win a SB with him. And i say this as someone who has lived in wisconsin for 46 years. I hope the jets are blessed with health, so they can reach that potential.

[@jaseallenson316]

@AFuckingBird oh ok. Ya must not know their roster & their head coach.

[@jaseallenson316]

@AFuckingBird omg,, you are clueless. Level up bud, and just watch it play out. You will see

I heard that and was thinking that was a mis spoken stat! But seriously, 54 yards ALL season in a 17 game season! No seriously, is that correct!? If it is , in this pass happy nfl, that HAS to be the greatest season by a corner back of all time! That is not just shut down.......that dude is an "Erase" cornerback! Wow! Just Wow!

[@PanagiotisAraujo11]

Representing Detroit Solidly 💪🏾💪🏾💯, Great Interview awesome chemistry 🔥

[@Sirx1K1K]

It’s so crazy. I won a national championship against Sauce & his Detroit Spartans team in youth football, he was already a dog back then, one of the only players we knew about before we played them

[@curchrwratv]

He not lying the young league boys from Detroit was in Florida at the Various nationals and several of them 13 yr olds had UGA and Alabama offers from the SEC etc. I had a great time with them kids and they showed me so much love, I ❤️ Detroit.

[@204jjb]

Sauce need to go to Denver and play with pat surtain they would be the best duo ever

[@TheBookOfSammy]

The Jets are going to be a nightmare to a lot of AFC teams that have super bowl aspirations….they could also be the perfect spoiler down the stretch if they don’t happen to get in, because the AFC is too deep. I see Denver making some noise this year too with Sean Payton as the coach and a bounce back year for Russ. If the Cowboys aren’t on Fox and they happen to show the Jets instead, I wouldn’t even be mad. I want to see how they’re going to look this year, especially living in the area, it’s Giants territory, but we’ll see.

[@wellsgunter948]

The league would be crazy if they all had that kind of humble swag about themselves like sauce does!

[@Breo449]

Rc and Freddy are gents Chan is a funny ass mofo lol And sauce That's my cornerback A levelheaded young man Great pod fellas

[@christiansaunders8718]

Channing Streaming would be insane lol

[@HappyEddyMcGuire]

Not only is he the best CB already in the league but his personality and mental game is off the charts. Humility is weapon and Sauce knows.

And he is about to be a superbowl champion.

[@out.the.mudpodcast]

Another hit fellas. Big fan of the show. Can I provide a recommendation? Maybe it’s time to reach some of the guys who are on the brink… we know what the brink is. I think of a Jameson Williams, Deandre Swift, Sammy Watkins. Great collegiate players that got caught in the tumble weeds of the NFL and are a season away from being forgotten superstars. Those guys prolly could benefit from sitting down with you fellas forreal. Love always

[@sierafasulo6578]

I really love y’all ❤ this young man is absolutely sensational both on and off the field.

[@tannermikal2]

Def hard not to rock with Sauce.. see for me he played at UC so my fan pass legit 🤣 so like my man say… Chill 💯 haha dude is a young boy he going grow into more a freak with his mental 🎯

[@GC-ye9qf]

Channing is so raw, its funny...Love it. He's like that crazy uncle that be trying to school you with facts but in a crazy way, and then the first one to get into a fight. now, gear switch. It;s interesting how Sauce felt like the magazine did him kinda dirty with that cover. It reminded me of Terry Crews and Dave Chappelle and others pointing out how out of nowhere, companies, execs will try to have you do something weird. That being his last photo for the session, ends up on the cover. Can't trust none of these big companies. Don't sell your soul Sauce, material wealth will never replace self rule.

I had no idea Sauce Gardner reached enlightenment. When you a real nigga, you believe in yourself 100% with God, and with that; Anything really is possible. Not even on no cliche shit. The serendipity is real if you believe in it and work hard to meet it halfway ❤ Do the little things. They add up.

[@Carolinakid1984]

Great DB and I hope he has success. Well grounded

[@tommytylerjr7281]

Snoops league has pushed out a ton of kids to the nfl but man i think the police athletic league in the city gets overlooked so many greats have came outta there. As a metro detroiter im proud of this kid as a man and as a player. Def plays with that eastside of detroit grittyness and glad hes where he is as a lions fan ill even say that cause man the stress sauce wouldnve endured from tix to possibly being a target from jealous people around here wouldve hindered his performance at least a little bit. In NY he cqn just focus and getting better everyday. Keep up all the great things ur doing sauce u def have alot of fans of u back home who cheer on local guys who r chasing their dreams!! -tommy t
