List of returners from last week. Someone is going to score points for their defense.

 

[J Giles Band]

I'll go with TreVeyon to score first.

Just because he is on my team... not so much because I feel confident he'll be the guy.

 

[Rubi]

All in on "somebody I never would have expected"

 

[Monkian]

Tank Bigsby because Howie Roseman is a genius.

 

[JoeSteeler]

I will go with Charlie Jones.

I am in a league where we start a dedicated KR/PR. Myles Price looked good last week for Minnesota.

 

[Statorama]

Deebo!!!!

But seriously, Luther Burden III

Or for the player himself, in return yardage leagues.

Posted this in another thread. Thought it might be worth looking at again...

Week 1, we had a number of players scoring significant return yardage points compared to last season, very obviously due to the new dynamic kickoff rule change this season... Biggest standouts for me, based on their current and/or potential growth in role on offense (half-PPR + 20 ret yds per point):

Marvin Mims - 3/4 targets for 12 yards and a fumble + 129 ret yards = 7.15 pts
Trey Henderson - 5 for 27 rush + 6/6 for 24 rec + 43 ret = 10.25 pts
Deebo - 7/10 for 77 rec + 1 for 19 & 1 TD rush + 50 ret = 21.6 pts
Jayden Reed - 3/5 for 45 & 1 TD rec + 21 ret = 13.05 pts

Monitoring for increased offensive usage in future weeks:

Rasheen Ali - 1 for 5 rush + 167 ret = 8.85 pts
Chimere Dike - 1 for 9 rush + 156 ret = 8.7 pts
Kaleb Johnson - 1 for -1 rush + 132 ret = 6.4 pts
Kendre Miller - 5 for 24 rush + 88 ret = 6.8 pts
Sean Tucker - 1 for 2 rush + 81 ret = 4.25 pts
Brashard Smith - lots of team injuries + 63 ret = 3.15 pts
