If so, I'm happy if he stays on the bench. Worse than a return game that gains nothing is a return game which turns over the ball. KI Skins Fan 11-15-2013, 04:51 PM It may be that Nick Williams is not playing due to ball security issues. If so, I'm happy if he stays on the bench. Worse than a return game that gains nothing is a return game which turns over the ball. By that reasoning they brought him up to do nothing. I doubt that is the case. There are enough positions where we could use help that if they weren't planning to use him then they should have scoured the list of free agents for someone who they thought could help. No, I expect him to return kicks against Philly. SmootSmack 11-15-2013, 05:32 PM I'd be surprised if he isn't returning punts on Sunday. Very happy for him, been following his game for a few years now. Big fan KI Skins Fan 11-16-2013, 07:58 AM Per The Washington Post: "Coach Mike Shanahan praised the practice-field performance this week of rookie wide receiver Nick Williams but stopped short Friday of officially naming Williams the Washington Redskins’ punt returner for Sunday’s game at Philadelphia." I would hate to think that Mike Shanahan feels any pressure to make changes to the worst special teams unit in the league. On the other hand, if it's not working why not try something different? kct1975 10-05-2014, 12:26 PM Just found this thread again... Well it is a year later, and the Special Teams still look like Crap! They still can't tackle, and still can't stay in their lanes.

Need to get a kicker in the offseason for sure. kct1975 10-05-2014, 01:16 PM Despite the coaching change, teams continue to look terrible.

Nick for President! kct1975 10-05-2014, 02:33 PM I say we bring Lorenzo back next year, he'll be a FA. I agree!
