Who do you guys think will be returning kicks and punts this year? Nunn did pretty well last yr on punt returns maybe stick 1 of our RB's who wont be seeing as much carries as the other on KR....Your thoughts??

 
I was wondering if we were even working on special teams this year. There has been no mention of it anywhere. Grixby/Nunn will probably share the PR spot again. As for the KRs, I think Wilson and BJax/Green should be used. But they have a lot of options for returning kicks so I guess we'll find out later today!

 
I doubt Grixby gets any time at PR early this season because of the hand injury. Hard enough to field punts with 2 good hands. I think Nunn will see a lot of time back there. Lucky and Jackson and or Green may be the kick returners. Jackson was pretty hesitant out there last year, so who knows.

 
Yes!... Lucky and Wilson returning kicks, I am pumped... i wanna see at least one returned for a TD this year.... and have it actually count

 
Nunn with the punts. Then I think once the season gets going, the running back that is not at the top, other than Glenn, will return kicks.

 
Here is the depth chart for special teams returners.

KOR:

27 Kenny Wilson, 6-0, 220, Jr., Liberal, Kan. - or -

30 Tierre Green**, 6-1, 200, Jr., Omaha, Neb.

20 Marlon Lucky*, 6-0, 210, So., North Hollywood, Calif.

32 Brandon Jackson*, 5-11, 210, Jr., Horn Lake, Miss.

PR:

83 TERRENCE NUNN**, 6-0, 185, Jr., Houston, Texas

2 Cortney Grixby**, 5-9, 170, Jr., Omaha, Neb. - or -

25 Andre Jones, 6-0, 195, Jr., Fort Walton Beach, Fal.

 
You have that wrong... Wilson starts at one, with Greene backing him up at that postition, and Lucky starts at the other with Jackson backing him up. There are two kickoff return slots.

 
Callahan's first year was a SCARY year in the return game. It improved big time last season. Let's hope it keeps on getting better.
