Buffalo Bills' Jairus Byrd has been invisible

Buffalo Bills Free Safety Jarius Byrd

Under last year's regime, Jairus Byrd didn't see the field until week five. The rookie phenom proceeded to lead the league in interceptions while being limited to only nine games.

Now that we have reached week seven, we can legitimately ask when the Bills will get their ball-hawk back. Bryd has been non-existent through the first seven weeks of the season.

There are two plausible explanations as to why Byrd simply isn't making plays.

1. Byrd is not playing at 100 percent due to a groin injury he sustained late in training camp.
2. Bills' new defensive coordinator George Edwards has not created a defensive scheme that allows Byrd to utilize his play-making ability.

Ultimately, the Bills lack playmakers, and the organization must now make a conscious effort to draw up schemes that better utilize the talents that they do have.

Jairus Byrd: The talented free safety may be experiencing a sophomore slump.
