Bucs' Adjei-Barimah says he'll learn from benching

Associated Press

TAMPA — The Bucs' Jude Adjei-Barimah had an improbable run of seven straight starts at cornerback, but he found himself benched in Thursday's loss to the Rams after giving up a 60-yard touchdown pass to Kenny Britt in the first quarter.

Former starter Johnthan Banks played the rest of the game. Adjei-Barimah, an undrafted rookie, said all he can do is learn from the mistake and try to improve.

"It's a mistake on my behalf. I should have been better," Adjei-Barimah said of letting Britt get behind him in coverage for the longest play the defense has allowed this season.
