Charvarius Ward and Herb Miller are battling for a starting cornerback role

One of the few storylines coming out of the Kansas City Chiefs preseason matchup with the Pittsburgh Steelers last Saturday was a sudden battle at one of the Chiefs’ boundary cornerback positions. Even though Charvarius Ward started the game opposite Bashaud Breeland, the second series saw Herb Miller enter the game in that spot.

Before then, Miller hadn’t seen much time with the first team — yet he found himself out there with the likes of Frank Clark, Chris Jones and Anthony Hitchens. Miller and Ward continued to rotate through the second-team defensive snaps — clearly giving defensive coordinator Steve Spagnuolo a good look at both players in similar situations.
