Bengals cornerback Dre Kirkpatrick has taken his fair share of criticism, but he does some impressive things in coverage when put in the right situation. Kirkpatrick had a few negative plays early in the team’s Week 2 matchup against the Baltimore Ravens, but as the game went on, he put out some quality tape.
On this first play, where Jessie Bates caught his first career interception, the Bengals are in Cover 1 man (with Bates as the single-high safety) and Kirkpatrick is playing loose at 7 yards on the bottom of the screen.
