Outside of injuries, no position has seen more dramatic week-to-week shifts in playing time and responsibilities than slot corner. Beanie Bishop Jr. felt that in Week 17 when he received zero defensive snaps against the Kansas City Chiefs.
His share of snaps has been on the decline over the last three weeks, but before that he played a whopping 81 percent of the snaps on defense in Week 14 against the Cleveland Browns. His 58 snaps that week are more than the last three games combined.
Mike Tomlin was asked about the division of labor at slot corner between Bishop and Cam Sutton during his weekly press conference.
