Lance Dunbar and Special Teams

[Galian Beast]

Anyone know why he isn't returning kicks anymore?

I'd like to see him get another shot at returning kicks, and would actually like to see him return punts too, not just because of his speed/strength combo, but because I'd like to see Harris as a Jammer.

I have no idea why, but I've asked myself the same question.

 

[MapleLeaf]

My guess. Not durable enough for the pounding.

No. he's frail. Harris will show up Monday

Lance Dunbar is not a punt returner. He didn't return punts in college. He really hasn't returned too many kickoffs, either. He returned 10 kickoffs in college, returned 12 kickoffs for Dallas in 2012, 1 in 2013 and so far 0 this season.

They probably don't trust him enough to field the punts since he does not have a lot of experience doing it.

However, if Harris keeps putting them on the ground Dunbar might get a chance.

They will turn to Cole Beasley before they use Dunbar on punt returns.

Harris has skins on the wall and hasn't played himself out of that job - yet.
