Depends who they sign to the roster. Kenyan Drake and Kareem Hunt available could offer more upside as Cooks immediate backup for 3rd down purposes. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The contract was always dumb, I disagreed with Beane's decision to give him a pay cut instead of releasing him. But kick return isn't that important, less so now with the most recent rule change. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Oh, I don’t think they would look at it that way actually being out on the ski could be considered that 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Be interesting to see what they do. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dave mcbride Posted July 24, 2023 Share Posted July 24, 2023 10 minutes ago, ScottLaw said: Don’t disagree I’m talking punt returns though… that isn’t dead…. He had 6 fumbles between 2019-2021 on about 50-60 returns… that’s pretty significant…. Plus the increase risk of injury and they need him at WR…Hopefully they find another option but yea, I am sure right now he is their first try. He had 143 returns over the course of 2019-2021 -- 74 punt returns and 69 kickoff returns. Just an fyi. He also fumbled 8 times over those three seasons, although it's not clear whether they came on ST plays or scrimmage plays. He had 77 touches from scrimmage between 2019-2021. So, 8 fumbles on 220 total touches from 2019-2021, which is 3.6 percent. That's very high. In 2022, he had 1 fumble on 11 total touches (ST and from scrimmage). That's a 9 percent fumble rate, although the sample size is way too low. Over the four seasons, he's fumbled at a 3.9 percent rate (9 fumbles over 231 touches). Not good. Over the course of his career, McKenzie has fumbled 10 times on 296 total touches, which is 3.37 percent. However, if you take out his first season for Denver, in which he fumbled a ridiculous 6 times on 29 total touches (24 returns and 5 catches/runs), he has fumbled 4 times on 267 touches -- a respectable 1.4 percent rate. A couple of takeaways: McKenzie's propensity to fumble is greatly exaggerated if you take away that rookie season in Denver, and Harty truly is a fumbling machine.

78thealltimegreat Posted July 24, 2023 Share Posted July 24, 2023 Man tough…After hearing what happened I’m just glad Nyheim is only recovering from a knee injury. Someone running into him with another Jet Ski could have been far far worse. 1 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The whole situation sounds like whoever he was with was screwing around, ended his season and potentially risked his future in the NFL. I don't think they will be friends much longer. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
John from Riverside Posted July 24, 2023 Share Posted July 24, 2023 I was seriously wondering whether or not he was going to make the team or possibly get traded are running back room is so full and I really didn’t want to see Latavius Murray be a scratch every week that guy can ball Injuries suck and are never good. However, I wasn’t sure how Hines was going to get actual playing time other than special teams and with the new special teams rules, I just saw path where he might get cut or traded. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

With new rule its better to Fair catch the ball and take it at the 20 or 25 wherever the rule states. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
