  Any guesses on who will be the Primary Punt Returner, this year ?
  
  And how about, the Kick Returners ?
  
  Based on size and speed, guys like Jaylen Dixon, Money Parks, & Clark Phillips III, & Micah Bernard could be in the mix. Perhaps even Ryan Peppins ….

  You know it’s slow as f**k when people are trying to discuss kick returners.

    Actually that was a huge part of our success this past season especially when you consider how many points we gave up on special teams. W\O Covey, that could mean the difference in 4 or so wins.

      Agreed, 100%. A Great Punt / Kick Returner can be a Game Changer!
      
      I’m interested to see who this will be.

      While Covey gave us some spectacular plays in the return game, other parts of our special teams need significant improvement. I lost track of how many TDs were scored directly off of blocked punts and returns as well as giving up a few short fields. We very probably could have defeated SDSU and Oregon State without those miscues.

    Dixon & Peppins both have speed & wiggle. If they are also best at catching the ball, (job 1), then they’ll definitely be in the mix.
    
    Interesting position battle…

      Well we know Dixon is a body catcher which is a bigger “no no” than dropping the ball when you play the slot. So lets put a pin in that one.

        You want our returners to hand catch punts and kicks?

  Have we gotten a new punter and kicker? That’s what I’m more concerned about
