I remember in the preseason a lot of people were adamant that he should not be returning kicks. Looks like the team made the right choice putting him in a position to use his talents.
I think they meant he should not be returning kicks from 5-6 yards in the end zone to only reach the 22 when he could have taken the touchback and netted the team a few extra yards.
But all that return yardage adds up and looks good on your stat sheet when pro bowl voting begins, and I imagine every player has a Pro Bowl bonus in their contract, so good for him.
