Logically, one might come to the conclusion that our head coach who is very experienced in developing defensive backs in his system, has decided that the guy you might have expected to play has been determined to be worse in this system than the guy that is playing ahead of him.
His coaching and development of DBs earns him the benefit of the doubt.
Benford is very very good and most of this forum was wrong about him and Elam. Sean was right.
