| Broncos Rookie CB Perrish Cox Making Them Rethink Their Lineup? | | | Broncos rookie CB Perrish Cox, a fifth-round pick out of Oklahoma State, is making his case for a prime role in '10. Champ Bailey and Andre Goodman are the starters with Nate Jones as the nickel back, but Cox just keeps making plays in spring practices and could force the coaches to re-think their lineup. "He's a rookie like everybody else who's come in here and he's made his share of mistakes but he's also earned, I think, some of the respect of the veterans -- there's some trust that I think he's probably earned," Broncos coach Josh McDaniels told The Colorado Springs Gazette. "He's made mistakes that cost us, but he doesn't usually make the same mistake multiple times which is very important for a young player to learn. I think he goes about his business every day. He's out there working hard. He's here early and stays late. He's trying to find a role in the kicking game as well as competing at both sides at corner. He hasn't disappointed us in terms of what we thought we were getting." Source: SportingNews.com | | |
