HOUSTON (AP) -Cornerback Fred Bennett has never lacked confidence, exuding it from the moment he was drafted by Texans in 2007.
It helped that his friend and college mentor Dunta Robinson was already starring in the Texans secondary when he arrived in Houston.
With Robinson skipping camp in a contract holdout and six-year veteran Jacques Reeves out with a broken leg, the Texans are counting on Bennett to use that confidence and lead this shaky group.
Coach Gary Kubiak says Bennett’s more mature this year. He also says the absence of Reeves and Robinson creates an opportunity for the 25-year-old Bennett, who struggled a bit last season after a solid rookie year.
