Christian Benford

Practically everyone on defense will have to step up against the Dolphins' offense, but that mainly includes the Bills' cornerbacks. Benford will guard Tyreek Hill and Jaylen Waddle in this game, which is a big task for any cornerback. 

Christian Benford has been solid so far this season, but he's undoubtedly one of the weaker points on the defense. Although Benford has been a solid pick-up for the Bills as a sixth-round pick, it's unlikely that a cornerback of his caliber would be able to guard Hill and Waddle one-on-one.

McDermott will scheme Benford to play a lot of zone and overall try not to allow big plays to happen and let the offense get behind him. Benford has been in 100% of defensive snaps and has performed very well. Benford has only been targeted a total of six times during the season so far, allowing only 44 yards.

Benford will have to step it up against one of the best-receiving duos in the league against an electric passing offense.
