Who Should I Start? Kaiir Elam or Derek Stingley Jr.

Saturday, June 15, 2:40 PM

Buffalo Bills cornerback Kaiir Elam just turned 23 years old and has gotten a ton of repetitions this spring with veteran Rasul Douglas missing the voluntary organized team activities. Elam will be in line to challenge for a starting outside cornerback role in training camp and the preseason. He was taken with the 23rd overall pick in the 2022 NFL draft out of Florida, but he hasn't really panned out yet for the Bills secondary early in his career. It comes after Tre'Davious White left to play for the Los Angeles Rams. Elam will be competing with Douglas and Christian Benford for more snaps on the outside at cornerback as he heads into his third NFL season. At worst, Elam will be a key backup for the Bills defense this year.

Houston Texans cornerback Derek Stingley intercepted two passes in the Texans' 22-17 win over the Denver Broncos in Week 13. It was Stingley's third straight game with an interception, and he now has four on the season. It was also Stingley's third straight game with two or more passes defended. He ended up with four pass defenses in the game. While Stingley missed Weeks 3 through 9, he has been one of the top ten defensive backs in the past three weeks. Next week, he faces the Jets, who have a mess at quarterback, and he should be a quality starter.
