TEMPE, Ariz. -- It might be Honey Badger time for the Arizona Cardinals.With the Cards reeling, Tyrann Mathieu feels he cant sit back and continue to play deep safety while he regains movement and confidence in his surgically repaired right knee.I mean, were 1-3, man, Mathieu said. Its not really time for me to sit back and play it slow. I feel good. I feel great. I look forward to wherever coach puts me at, but if I got anything to say about it, Ill be back in my normal spot.Mathieus normal spot is in the box at slot cornerback, despite his position being listed as safety. Last season, before he tore his right ACL, he played 519 of his 833 defensive snaps in the slot, with another 170 lined up as an outside linebacker.This season, he has spent just 25 of his 220 snaps in the slot. He has spent 159 snaps at free safety.The past two games, Mathieu has spent more plays in the box but has dropped back into coverage instead of getting miixed up in the play at the line of scrimmage.dddddddddddd Hes antsy for that to change.Im ready to cut it loose, Mathieu said. My expectations are extremely high for myself. Ill never feel sorry for myself, so I think its just time for me to get back to what Im doing. I feel comfortable out there. Its time for me to start making plays.Mathieus campaign to play more in the slot might get a bolster from a groin injury to fellow safety Tyvon Branch, who had picked up Mathieus snaps in the slot. The severity of Branchs injury has yet to be announced by the Cardinals, but he did not practice Monday. Branch has played 129 of his 166 snaps in the slot, or 77.7 percent.Arizona coach Bruce Arians has said hell move Mathieu back to his old position when the Honey Badger tells him hes ready.I just did, Mathieu said.
