But what if he returns a punt for the winning score that gets us to the playoffs?
If it was someone else, they may be not going at all.

Lamb was a shoelace tackle away from returning a punt for a touchdown last week. Keep him back there. He has the potential to flip the field or put points on the board every time he touches the ball.

what if he gets injured and lost for the year lessening our chances for the playoffs. your point is probably as good as mine, but i tend to err on the side of safety.But what if he returns a punt for the winning score that gets us to the playoffs?

What if he gets hung out to dry on in breaking route. Until he is #1 or #2 WR the team is trying to get him as many touches as possible within the flow of the game.

That's my point. There's enough risk just playing wr without adding the risk of punt returns. There is no right or wrong answer. Just opinions.

Exactly what I'm saying. I'm a fan of Patrick "Fair-Catch" Crayton. That's what I named him because he was the king of the Fair-Catch. But a Fair Catch is perfect... no block in the back.. no injuries... perfect.. Teams that rely on punt returns to help them win football games.. are garbage teams to begin with. Maybe Dallas is that this year.. but next year.. I better not see CeeDee on Special Teams or I'm calling Stephen Jones!
