Results from Fantasy Points Data shows the 30 worst defensive backs who defended at least 21 targets through the season’s first seven weeks.

Among them are Raiders safety Jeremy Chinn and cornerback Taron Johnson. Chinn, who signed a two-year, $16.25 million contract with the Raiders last year, has allowed an average passer rating of 119.2. While Johnson, who was acquired this offseason in trade with the Buffalo Bills, has allowed a 117.6 passer rating.

Though those are numbers that Raiders defensive coordinator Rob Leonard would want to improve on, they are nowhere near those at the top of the list such as Miami Dolphins’ Jason Marshall, who has allowed a 151.0 passer rating, Washington Commanders’ Mike Sainristil at 143.5, or Chicago Bears’ Tyrique Stevenson allowing a 142 passer rating.
