Sauce Gardner laughs off iShowSpeed claiming he could beat him in race Instagram: ishowspeed\/New York JetsIn an exclusive interview with Dexerto, New York Jets\u2019 star cornerback Ahmad \u2018Sauce\u2019 Gardner spoke about how he got hooked on Warzone, his Call of Duty dream team and, perhaps most importantly, whether streamer iShowSpeed would really stand a chance against him in a race. After being drafted by the Jets in the 2022 NFL Draft, Sauce quickly became one of the standout players in his position, named Defensive Rookie of the Year, as well as first-team All Pro and going to the Pro Bowl in each of his first two seasons. He\u2019s even the highest-rated cornerback in Madden 25. Not only that, but Sauce has been loud and proud about his love of gaming and the streaming world, playing Warzone and other games with numerous top streamers. When speaking about these streamers, though, there was one question that Sauce had to give a resolute answer to, and that\u2019s whether Speed would beat him in a race. \u201cHe\u2019s not faster than me,\u201d said Gardner when the idea of him racing Speed was even mentioned. \u201cHe always says he\u2019s faster than me. He\u2019s fast, he\u2019s an athlete, but he\u2019s not faster than me.\u201d Speed has showcased himself as a talented and athletic person in his time on stream, including running a 4.4 second 40-yard dash himself \u2014 roughly the same as Sauce\u2019s 4.41 at the NFL Combine in 2022. In fact, he\u2019s already faced off with Gardner in his own game, with the NFL star failing to guard the streamer in a collab they did together earlier in 2024. Both believe they have a shot at beating each other in straight up race, and it feels as though neither will truly settle until the dash is complete and we know once and for all who is faster out of the two. It\u2019s not just on his feet that Sauce is competitive, though, as he spoke about which of his NFL peers, as well as the best players in the game, he would like to team with in Warzone. In terms of the pro players, Sauce wanted to slide himself in right next to the GOATs of the game, with the current Falcons trio of Shifty, Biffle, and Soka. As for his fellow NFL stars, Sauce said his Warzone dream team would be JuJu Smith-Schuster, Justin Simmons, and Jets teammate Isaiah Davis. Gardner isn\u2019t the only person that wants to take Speed on in a foot race either: Jake Paul wants to put $25,000 on the line to take him on, while Olympian Eva Swoboda invited Speed to race her too.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
