Darrelle Revis has struggled so far this year. In Week One, Cincinnati’s A.J. Green repeatedly got the better of him, and last night the Bills’ Marquise Goodwin torched Revis for an 84-yard touchdown.

Many wondered: is the Jets’ All-Pro corner, once the undisputed best defensive back in the league, on the decline? Cavaliers guard J.R. Smith made a comment to that effect on Twitter during the Jets’ win Thursday.
Damn #Revisisland turning into a tourist resort... #JustSaying
Revis didn’t take too kindly to J.R.’s tweet. He clapped back on Twitter Friday with a retort to the effect of, Who are you to diss me?
@TheRealJRSmith still heading to Canton though. What about you??? 👀
By “still heading to Canton,” Revis is implying he’s a sure-fire NFL Hall of Famer. It’d be tough to argue with that, but his prior success (Revis has made the Pro Bowl seven times) doesn’t negate the logic of Smith’s observation.
We’ll keep an eye on J.R.'s feed and let you know if he responds.
