Jevon Holland has been in the NFL for just four seasons but has already made a name for himself as an elite safety. The former Oregon defensive star shined brightly for the Miami Dolphins over the last four years, and now, he's headed to the Big Apple, where he'll join forces with fellow Duck Kayvon Thibodeaux.
After his four-year tenure in Miami came to an end, Holland was considered one of the most highly coveted players in free agency alongside other former Oregon players like Juwan Johnson and Marcus Mariota.
Despite battling through injuries, Holland was able to put up incredible numbers during his first four years in the league, including an astonishing number of tackles.
