"While last week's win over Tampa Bay was not Bryant's first action of the season, it was his most extensive action to date. He was forced to fill in for injured starting cornerback Mike Hughes, who has already been ruled out against the Cardinals. Stepping into the role as a starter, Bryant was repeatedly targeted by Bucs quarterback Baker Mayfield."
"According to PFF, Bryant allowed seven catches on nine targets for 134 yards, earning a 28.7 coverage and overall grade on 41 coverage snaps. However, my own charting of the game suggests that PFF was lowballing those numbers. Watching the film myself, Bryant allowed seven catches on 11 targets for 142 yards. To put that in context, PFF has a coverage snaps-per-target metric that indicates how often a defender is targeted."
"Bryant's 4 snaps per target is currently the lowest number of any cornerback that has played at least 50 coverage snaps this year. His fellow cornerbacks, Dee Alford and Mike Hughes, are not far behind him with 4.7 and 5.8 snaps per target. Alford ranks second among nickel cornerbacks and Hughes eighth among outside cornerbacks. All of this thanks to the presence of A.J. Terrell"
Cobee Bryant made his most extensive action of the season filling in for injured starter Mike Hughes and was repeatedly targeted by Baker Mayfield. PFF recorded seven catches on nine targets for 134 yards and a 28.7 coverage and overall grade on 41 coverage snaps, while independent charting showed seven catches on 11 targets for 142 yards. PFF's coverage snaps-per-target metric placed Bryant at 4 snaps per target, the lowest among cornerbacks with at least 50 coverage snaps. Dee Alford and Mike Hughes register 4.7 and 5.8 snaps per target, and A.J. Terrell draws far fewer targets. Bryant displayed visible bravado after the game and entered the roster as an undrafted free agent with elevated expectations.
