OldTimeAFLGuy Posted February 17, 2018 Share Posted February 17, 2018 2 hours ago, GreggTX said: Newsflash: Amerson isn't all that good. Amerson was a revelation after being claimed off waivers from Washington by the Raiders early in the 2015 season. Amerson started 14 games for Oakland that year and set a franchise record with 26 passes defensed and added a career-high four interceptions. That play earned Amerson a four-year contract extension the following summer worth up to $38 million, but he never played to the level of that deal. Amerson's play regressed in 2016 and he struggled mightily this past season as part of a secondary that became the first to fail to record any interceptions in the first 10 games of the season in NFL history. Amerson played only seven games before being sidelined by a foot injury for the rest of 2017. He allowed opponents to catch 23 of 31 passes thrown into his coverage area for 391 yards and four touchdowns. The 155.6 passer rating when targeting Amerson was the highest against any defender targeted at least 20 times, according to SportRadar. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Zerovoltz Posted February 18, 2018 Share Posted February 18, 2018 We (KC) signed him to a one year "prove it" contract. Given how awful the CB's opposite Peters have been....probably worth a shot since he didn't cost much. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

INT numbers can be really deceptive when judging defensive backfield play. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
