Stuff Skyy never saw in college.
He’s out there thinking a lot and not playing fast or crisp…but I think that will come in time.
I’ll never understand them putting so much on his plate early on by being the primary punt returner and learning every WR position snd all the nuances that come with it.
I’m just glad they pulled the plug on that so the kid can focus

I also dislike the "Punt returning is too much on his plate" argument.
How in the world is returning punts too much on his plate? All he has too do is catch the goddamn ball. It's not like he's spending hours in the film room studying punt coverages every week.
They had him returning punts because it's a cheap way to get him involved with the team. It was meant to be a benefit to help his growth. To get him on the field.
I don't know where that argument came from, but damn it's a sucky one.
It's not like he's missing snaps being a punt returner.
He's not missing valuable lessons on the sideline watching other WR's run routes.
And it's not like he's a top 4 WR in this offense and taking first team reps, so WTF else does he have to do?
Let that argument die in a fire too pls.
