Cincinnati Bengals cornerback Cam Taylor-Britt has had a brutal few weeks.

He backed up his trash talk with a stunning interception against the Chiefs, then got torched by the Commanders in primetime after more comments caught fire in the media.

Then, in Carolina, he was routinely targeted and coughing up big gains before giving way to DJ Turner on the snap counts. He was later the guy closest in coverage on a Panthers touchdown.

While it was easy to pass off Taylor-Britt suddenly working out of the rotation as coaches just wanting to find a way to get a former second-rounder like Turner playing time, that's just not the case.

Here's coordinator Lou Anarumo on Monday, courtesy of Paul Dehner Jr. of The Athletic:

So, that all but confirms the Bengals are more than willing to get a player off the field amid struggles, even if he's supposed to be the No.1 cornerback.

That would likely, then, apply to former first-rounder Dax Hill in his first season at corner, too.

For his part, Turner looked good in his big opportunity. So while there's no reason to think CTB won't bounce back on track, we could see more of a rotation than in the past.

For now, accountability is a theme for the struggling defense and CTB is the proof.
