Despite a clear and present threat to his starting job by Alterraun Verner, Dolphins corner Byron Maxwell believes he’s played “pretty good” over the past two weeks.
The coaching staff might disagree.
They’ve opened up the competition for Maxwell’s spot on the field, with Adam Gase saying Sunday that “we’re going to play the best guys.”
When asked Monday about possibly being benched for the second time in as many years, Maxwell responded:
“It is what it is. It's nothing that I can control. ... I'm not in control.”
Maxwell can control one thing: How he plays.
