Who will return kicks this week? Switzer questionable.

I heard Randle-El was out for the season.
 
We still have time to sign Toussaint
 
They reached out to DRI but you know how slow mail is in UmpaUmpa Land..........................

Wasn't Eli suspended by the league and the suspension was going to happen when he came back from the injury? For some reason, I am remembering something about that.

YES, once activated he has to serve a 1-game SUSPENTION. GAURANTEE you he won't be returning punts this week or next and if you ask me, I doubt he is activated at all this year regular season and why would you activate playoffs unless major injury occured.

More signs pointing to Eli Rogers' activation by Steelers for game vs. Patriots

“Off the media, no social media, no nothing,” the Pittsburgh Steelers receiver said when approached by a pair or reporters Friday.

Rogers had just finished a practice in which fellow receivers Antonio Brown and JuJu Smith-Schuster acknowledged he was taking first-team reps alongside them. Offensive coordinator Randy Fichtner characterized Rogers as “healthy” – and now with Rogers’ replacement as the Steelers’ slot receiver, Ryan Switzer, having suffered an ankle injury, all signs are pointing to Rogers’ activation off the physically unable to perform list in time for Sunday’s game against the New England Patriots.

“Excited to get him back,” Brown said of Rogers. “He’s a great asset for the team.”

Rogers suffered a torn ACL in his most recent game, the playoff loss to Jacksonville 11 months ago. He opened training camp on PUP as he continued his rehabilitation, and he spent the first 13 weeks of the regular season on the PUP list until he was cleared to practice Nov. 28.

Did I miss something as I could have swore he had a 1-game SUSPENTION to serve......................

If he was rostered after the final cut down to roster than he pobably has served his 1-game SUSPENTION then put on IR to return or something but I'm not sure he was rostered and served that 1-game SUSPENTION yet. MEDIA isn't always right so to speak.

If someone has the time PLEASE post (I've gottA workie workie)

Juju would do well as KR. Sutton would be ok. He did have one gaffe PR but has been good in college. Maybe Trey Edmunds gets the nod for KR and ST duties...
 
Dhb
 
We're playing the Pats*****. It's not like it ******* matters who the KR is. :rolleyes1:
 
Cordarelle Patterson will be returning kicks. We need to be more worried about who is going to cover Gronk-baby and prevent the short game from shredding us.

Let abrown return punts... put the ball in his hands.

Does it really matter because gum smackers special teams guys will just take more dumb penalties anyway.

GAURANTEE!

GAURANTEE!

hahahahaha
 
Switzer is awful at kickoff returns, he is too slow and indecisive. Anyone would be an upgrade. Switzer is last in the NFL at 19.7 per return.

I think he's fine. ST are not good at all though.
