I'm not sure how to process this, especially with his new contract.

How often a cornerback is targeted is a good indication of what opposing offenses think of that player. Generally, if a cornerback is targeted frequently, it means the quarterback believes they can beat them with regularity.
Snap shares and coverage schemes can be influencing factors in the counting stats, but with a meaningful sample size, a high target rate can be an indication of a weak link in the secondary. After all, if an opposing offense senses a mismatch or decides a particular corner needs to be tested, they will go after them relentlessly until they’re convinced that it's not productive.
These are the NFL’s most targeted cornerbacks from the 2024 season in each major coverage facet.
Note: Minimum of 25% of coverage snaps required for each category
