NFL Fans Ripping Cornerbacks With Hilarious Social Distancing Memes is Just What We Need During Quarantine

Staying inside and practicing social distancing to prevent the spread of the coronavirus has taken a toll on plenty of people considering the lonely nature of the sacrifice we're all making. The plus side to this? People have extra time to make jokes on Twitter and we could always use a little extra sense of humor.

How about some social distancing in the NFL world? Former Minnesota Vikings cornerback Xavier Rhodes found himself practicing this trend long before it became a requirement while playing defense on an assigned receiver over the course of last year.

Rhodes, who signed a one-year "prove it" deal with the Indianapolis Colts, went from one of the best corners in all of football to the epitome of burnt toast in the blink of an eye.

On the other hand, while he was one of the finer corners in all of football in 2019, San Francisco 49ers' Richard Sherman found himself unable to stay anywhere close to Kansas City Chiefs wide receiver Sammy Watkins in the Super Bowl, which ended up sealing his team's fate.

Yiiikes.

But the undisputed master of staying far away from the wide receiver he was supposed to be covering is former Pittsburgh Steelers cornerback Artie Burns, who couldn't get close and physical with his opponent no matter how hard he tried.

In case you're unsure about how to properly practice this during these strange times, watch how Burns would always end up behind the receiver whenever they went deep down the field, and you'll become a master at social distancing.

And just for kicks, this one isn't cornerback-related, but it hits home for every NFL fan!

Sorry, Mitchell.
