Seahawks CB Devon Witherspoon tops Pro Football Focus’ CB rankings
Seahawks star Devon Witherspoon came in above all of his peers at the cornerback position in Pro Football Focus’ cornerback rankings this year.
The Seattle Seahawks' cornerback Devon Witherspoon has been ranked as the top cornerback in the NFL by Pro Football Focus for the upcoming 2026 season. Witherspoon's impressive performance last season contributed to his high ranking, as he finished as the NFL's highest-graded cornerback. During the 2025 season, he played a career-high 461 snaps on the outside while also being versatile enough to man the slot when needed.
In addition to his 13 pressures, including a sack in the Super Bowl, Witherspoon recorded one interception and eight pass breakups. His play as a top cover corner was instrumental in the Seahawks' Super Bowl victory, as he allowed only 8.5 yards per reception on the season. Witherspoon received second-team All-Pro honors in 2025 and is expected to continue his dominance in the upcoming season.
