Keep in mind that if you have his speed and quickness, you don't expect to be tackled much. Hell, not even touch if we are being honest. Bottom line, I'd be surprised if he takes more than half a dozen hits a game.

they know when to go down early of run out of bounds.. kind of lie a QB seeing big sack coming early they go down..

 

[basel90]

good if he returns kicks. don't need to see Cee Dee hurt on kick returns

 

[JohnsKey19]

Its not like he was on the field THAT much. Not like a full time starting lineman, etc. Should be ok. and once again he is not going to be in that many plays with us.

If all works out, he's a punt returner and maybe kickoff returner. I don't think he'll have to worry about much beyond that...

I'd be shocked if he took more than three solid hits in any given game -- of course, a lot depends on how much action he gets!

I'm, roughly, picturing he'll get a few punt returns and perhaps a few slot touches, as well.

That's a modest degree of action, at best. I think he'll likely be able to survive very nicely.

3 years.......that's quite a bit of confidence in him.

That’s what I was thinking
We rarely sign guy from outside to anything but one year deals till they’ve been here a season

If he can handle those two jobs effectively that’s plenty
But I think he can be used in offensive sets too

Good signing. Will make PS games more interesting on PR's now.
Instead of throwing players out there that have no real shot to make the 53. Like they over used Lance Lenoir, we have a player that can make it as a legit PR, and get him in open space on offense. Such as they need to do with Pollard.

TurpinTime!

If he's being held up by one player, another player is going to take a shot. Hopefully he's elusive to that, the way Emmitt was.

 

[HungryLion]

I’m all for bringing in a guy who can actually return punts.

 

[Runwildboys]

TurpinTime!

I heard that too. If only we still had Sherman Williams on the team, the jokes would be endless!

 

[jnday]

Dude is now the fastest guy on the team. He’ll be starting KR and probably have a shot at WR in preseason.

Does he return punts too?

 

[HungryLion]

Does he return punts too?

Yes he does. Which is what I’m most excited about. If he can be a good punt returner. That alone would be very helpful.

 

[ondaedg]

Next we will be bringing in Vinston Painter for a workout.

Micah Parsons beat Tyreek Hill in the NFL's fastest man competition...

 

[xwalker]

We don’t have a true slot guy if lamb isn’t outside
He should be able to help there but he’s a really good return guy
Curious who it means isn’t gonna be around soon

The NFL is trending towards bigger WRs in the slot.

Guys like CeeDee Lamb (6-2, 200).

 

[Risen Star]

What a stat.

 

[xwalker]

3 years.......that's quite a bit of confidence in him.

It unlikely to have an significant guarantees.

More years favors the team.

 

[Runwildboys]

If this kid's nickname isn't already "Turbo", I'll be very disappointed.
