Marcus Coleman to start at free safety

Marcus Coleman will start at free safety for the Cowboys on Sunday at Carolina.
Strong safety Roy Williams made the announcement on his weekly radio show on K104 this morning with host Chris Arnold.

Coleman replaces Patrick Watkins, who gets benched after numerous mistakes in the deep passing game.

Coach Bill Parcells wouldn't say who would start at his news conference this morning, so we'll find Coleman and possibly Watkins to find out the deal when the locker room opens up in a few moments.


Parcells also said he doesn't anticipate activating Watkins, Coleman and Keith Davis, who started 15 games last season at free safety.

So, I would think, Coleman and Davis are playing and Watkins is inactive.

We'll find out on Sunday.
