Versatility made Anthony Brown valuable in the past but his job may no longer be safe

Going into his sixth NFL season, Anthony Brown has become the grizzled veteran in the defensive backs room in Dallas. While he’s not the oldest corner on the Cowboys roster, he does have the longest tenure with the team, thanks in large part to his ability to play both inside and out in coverage. Despite this versatility, however, Brown’s roster spot may be in jeopardy in 2021.

Throughout the early portion of camp, Brown has played predominantly on the outside with Trevon Diggs. Jourdan Lewis, meanwhile, was given the first crack at covering the slot before a hamstring injury sidelined him early in camp.
