Two of the NFL's all-time greats are jockeying for position. Recently, legend Lawrence Taylor appeared on the "I AM ATHLETE" podcast and rolled out his top-five defensive players in history. He slotted himself atop the list and then had Reggie White, Deacon Jones, Deion Sanders, and Ronnie Lott in that order. Sanders saw the clip on social media and said that he didn't agree

Of course, it's natural for a player to think they are the best at what they do, especially when you're talking about legends like Taylor and Sanders, so it's not totally surprising to see them both make a bid to be No. 1 all time defensively.
