He did a lot of our punt returning in his freshman and sophomore years. He was pretty good at it, other than the fumbling. But he fumbled too much, especially while returning punts.
If he's figured out how to hold onto the ball--and he got a lot better about that his senior year as a running back--then he definitely should get a look as a punt returner.
He isn't very good at pass protection, which is kind of silly because of his great lateral quickness + his fearlessness. Dude should never not be able to get is body in front of someone coming at him.He can do it all.
***THIS***He'll come along as a blocker.
