Dennard seems to be improving, too. He wasn’t targeted against the Bengals, and he allowed just two receptions against the Saints. He’s a feisty cornerback who will have to take over the No. 1 spot if Talib has to miss time due to his injured hip. Dennard isn’t quite on Talib’s level, but he proved he can more than hold his own when he was matched up against Julio Jones and Roddy White against Atlanta and Marques Colston against the Saints.
I’ll say this about Dennard: Whoever is matched up against him will be very annoyed. Dennard is very handsy.
