When is the last time Butlsr played just 75% of the snaps in a game? He was good for 98% the last 2 years.Corner snap counts, week 2 at Saints:
65 -- 100% --- Stephon Gilmore
49 --- 75% --- Malcolm Butler
34 --- 52% --- Eric Rowe
27 --- 42% --- Jonathan Jones
I wouldn't put too much emphasis in to who did and did not start, even though the Boston sports media will surely squeeze every drop they can out of the topic over the next several days.
As noted previously, the matchups based on the Saints roster meant it made more sense to use Rowe more on the outside against taller receivers and Butler on Ginn.

If we're all gonna decide the only reason Butler didn't start was due to "matchups", we should at least all agree then that he is no way a No. 1 corner and not worth the money he was asking for.
We're on to Houston. Winning is for losers.I guess people forgot they won.

Maybe his last game before we got Gilmore?
Not since his rookie season.
To add on to this point, consider this topic as CB1 vs CB2 (and vs CB3). Gilmore is now CB1, not Butler.
Last year Logan Ryan had five games with snap counts in the 60's and 70's as a percentage, plus one in the 40's. Conversely Eric Rowe had six games in the 70's or above.
Perhaps it is time for us as fans to reconsider the reality of Butler's role at CB. The addition of Gilmore makes Butler a CB2, but many of us here are still looking at him as a CB1.
Regardless of who is CB2 (Rowe or Butler), there are going to be games where that corner is in on around 75% of the snaps. The days of Butler playing 100% of the snaps are over.

What is going on with Butler? Why did Rowe start over him today? I find it hard to believe he has fallen from our undisputed #1 CB to our #3.
Should we be concerned about this?
