Ross was injured and hid it from the coaches.
And none of us know what he did in practice. It is very possible that Malone knew a lot more about reading defenses and adjusting routes than Ross.
The one thing I can guarantee is that Marvin, like any other NFL coach, wants to win as much as possible in order to make his record look as good as possible. I just can't believe that he would bench Ross and make himself look worse over some petty feud with Tobin or Mike Brown. How does that even punish Tobin or Mike Brown in any way?
Josh Malone also played special teams while Ross did not. That is part of the reason he would be active instead of Ross.
