On the Steelers: Tomlin undecided on kick returns

[Galax Steeler]

It is not often a rookie returner who has an 89-yard kick return for a touchdown on his professional resume is replaced three games later by another rookie who hasn't returned a kickoff since his freshman season in college.

I say Limas Sweed should switch to CB.

Finally Ike wouldn't have the worst hands in the league at corner.

Based on Emmanuels facebook, he is already active for tmw...

I'm a bit surprised at Tomlin's decision here, but as usual, I defer to the coaches to make these decisions and trust in them that they know what is best for the team and when. We already know what Brown can do on returns - no harm in seeing what Sanders can bring.

Sanders must be showing something in practice as a WR and if he can do well on returns I bet he replaces Brown on the active roster most weeks. Good having this problem IMO.

Hey if sanders can bring something to the passing game I'm all for it

Go get em colonel!

My thought exactly. Thanks for saying it for me, lol.

I say it is worth a try who knows he might be better then Brown. As others have stated he could bring something to the passing game.

Wasn't it Rooney that said they needed to bring thier younger players along a little faster?Hard to get some real time game experience when you aren't even dressing for game days.Maybe that could have something to do with Tomlins reasoning.

I believe that is playing a BIG part in this. A smart move, IMO.

Don't you just love having these problems? 2 young talented receivers/returners duking it out for a full time position. I look for Sanders to use this opportunity to make a solid impression on his coaches.

On NFL.com Antonio Brown is listed as inactive, so i guess this is E. Sander's big shot!
