Isn't this just following the pattern for rookies? Nobody, not even Myles Garrett, starts out camp as the starter. Corbett will have to earn his way on the field and Shon Coleman gets the first crack at the position coaches groomed him to play. I thought this article cleared a lot up for me:

It sounds like Shon has first shot and the respect of teammates, but the backup plan could be Hubbard to the left side and Corbett to the right.
I haven’t any qualms with that process at all. Fans will say what they will about Hue; but I’ll bever complain about him not simply handing over a starter role to a rookie. (Unless said player is clearly better and he’s not getting on the field).
I think I asked on this board about Coleman’s grading from 17; someone answered, but I can’t remember what the particulars were.
