Steve Smith will continue to handle punt returns (1 Viewer)

As a Steve Smith owner, I guess this suggests that Steve Smith's hamstring injury is no longer a cncern, but I just don't like the fact that my stud WR is taking punt returns - so much more risk of injury...

As a Panther fan, I like this. Dude can make plays and didn't exactly keel over while performing these duties last year.

I like it since we get 1 point for every 20 kickoff and punt return yards makes Smith even more valuable.
