One year after signing a four-year, $25.5 million contract with the Tampa Bay Buccaneers, Alterraun Verner may have already lost his starting job. Verner was seen working with the backups today, according to the Tampa Bay Times' Greg Auman, with long-time Lovie Smith veteran Tim Jennings getting the nod with the starting group ahead of him. This comes a week after Verner played just 46% of the snaps to Jennings' 68%.
Rick Stroud noted yesterday that Verner was working with the slot cornerbacks, where he got a decent amount of playing time in his time with the Tennessee Titans.
