USA Today says Brandon Boykin Starts at Slot Corner...

So, apparently I missed something. According to the bright minds at USA today, Brandon Boykin is still on the Panthers...

Quote

Replacing Norman (4 INTs, two returned for TDs) will be a story line that hangs over the defense all season. The Panthers used three consecutive draft choices on cornerbacks. Don't be surprised to see James Bradberry, a long-armed second-round pick, or Daryl Worley, a third-round selection with good size, start opposite Bene Benwikere. After breaking his leg in December, Benwikere is now the top outside corner for the Panthers. Robert McClain, a late-season addition, will figure into the mix prominently. Free agent Brandon Boykin will play slot corner. At safety, veteran Kurt Coleman had seven interceptions, tied for best in the NFC. With veteran Roman Harper not re-signed, expect Tre Boston to start.

    • Are you arguing that his height deficiencies and footwork within the pocket have not been a present issue clearly seen on his game tape particularly in the games he struggled in? Because that's simply denying what everyone in this fanbase who have watched the games have seen. It's interesting how hardline BY fans here quickly and effortlessly pivot from whailing about being victimized to becoming the aggressor and hurling out allegations of bias and hatred. And at the end of the day while Bryce Young clearly improved significantly from the first two games of the season the reality of the situation is he still finished 42nd in yards per pass attempt behind Mac Jones and tied with Caleb Williams and 38th in passing yards per game behind the likes of Gardner Minshew Aidan O'Connell Drake Maye and Will Levis. Furthermore it took Bryce Young 23 games to surpass Panthers legend Kyle Allen's 13 games worth of passing yardage in 2019. So if your argument is he became a head and shoulders better passer over the course of the second half of the season the reality is we're still waiting to see that growth this season. And there is nothing controversial or vitriolic about saying so in the mind of a rational
    • Cam regularly threw for less than 200 yards and nobody questioned he was elite. He averaged 219 yds per game for his career.  You seem to be way too hung up on yards as a stat.  By that definition Jameis Winston should have been MVP by now. 
    • So... what metrics for production do you believe display these issues/limitations best? Are we only using total passing yards, height, and weight thresholds? If so, then what are those thresholds?
