One of the key matchups of Super Bowl LX involves two kids from Texas who were selected just three picks apart in the first round of the 2023 draft. Patriots cornerback Christian Gonzalez and Seahawks wide receiver Jaxon Smith-Njigba, a pair of All-Pros who have emerged as star players for their teams, will square off Sunday in a fascinating battle that will go a long way toward determining the outcome. Gonzalez, drafted 17th overall out of Oregon, played 14 games this season and recorded 69 tackles and 10 pass defenses.
