Diggs wants to return punts

[sullim4]

Nope.  Send McKitrrick back there when you need speed or Hyde when you cannot afford a fumble.  Diggs' strengths don't play well to the punt return position anyway.

It’s not returning kickoffs, which are still inherently more dangerous for everyone, not just the returner. I don’t think there’s any reason to believe there’s a higher injury risk returning punts than there is catching passes over the middle. 
That guy up in Foxborough had pretty important players in Welker and then Edelman returning punts for years. 
So I’m fine with it if Diggs wants to do it and the coaching staff thinks he’d be the best guy for the job.

I’m in!

Diggs is pretty safe & knows how to protect himself, so I wouldn't be against it.

 

Also, that would certainly shore up the tendency of our returners to drop & fumble away punts. Diggs has about as sure hands as one could possibly want.

Deceiving thread title no? He did this as a rookie. As a 5th round pick. Maybe he’s talking up Shakir..

Diggs was an electric kick returner I’n college and averaged 10 yards per punt return 

 

He was a five star Athlete who was electric wit the ball in his hands 

 

he’s too valuable to put back there tho

So then, we will have a punt return god as well, excellent…, 

 

Go Bills!!!

Diggs is only returning punts in spirit.

 

So, by my count, we have Punt God, TD Jesus, and the Spirit of Stefon. Holy Trinity. We're good.

I’m down. Playmaker, almost never fumbles. Don’t see why not honestly.

How did he last until the 5th round?  He looks as smooth back then as he does now.

I hope we're saying the same about Shakir years from now.

I said in another thread it would be interesting to see if we do this as an extra threat in the playoffs if we end up adding OBJ into the mix at that time. 

 

You stole Fizzy Lifting Drinks, you bumped your head into the ceiling that now has to be washed and sterilized so you get nothing! You lose! Good Day Sir!

He said “@buffalobills put me back there” 

 

I don’t understand your comment?

[TBBills]

Punt returners don't really get injured so I say anything to make this team better.
