Safe, secure, reliable hands.
Anytime punt is inside the 20, Beasley’s job is to just catch the ball and hopefully not get pinned deep/fumble
This.
If the punt is going to land in our own redzone, Beasley goes in. He's smart enough to know when to not be a hero and let it go, I don't remember the last time he made a bad decision on faircatch, let it bounce, Fire-call type stuff. And down inside the 20, I'm way more concerned with that than some heroic return.
Keep in mind we do still get pinned deep but that's not bad decisions by Beasley necessarily, that's just special teams. As Picard said, "It is possible to commit no mistakes and still lose. That is not weakness, that is life"... er, special teams.
But Austin is the guy they go with when there is room to operate and so he only has to focus on one thing while waiting on the ball: identifying his plan of attack.
