Daryl Worley

Another cornerback on the practice squad who could be called up to fill that final roster spot is Daryl Worley. The veteran joined the Buffalo Bills earlier this month after being cut by the Dallas Cowboys earlier this season.

The fit with the Buffalo Bills makes perfect sense for Worley because he knows the defense Sean McDermott runs very well. Worley was a third round pick by the Carolina Panthers in 2016 and played his rookie season under McDermott, who was the defensive coordinator.

This was arguably his best season in the NFL when he started 11 games and finished with 88 total tackles, one sack, one interception, and nine passes defended.

While Jackson may have played the best, the coaching staff could elect for a player with more experience. If that is the case, then Worley would be a good option for that final roster spot.
