    Without a doubt it's Wilson. This is another great thing about the Revis deal. Wilson is going to be dominant on punt returns. Fucking amazing.

    Rex already said that if Revis was there, Wilson would be the PR

    Wilson is much more important now than he was when camp started. It remains to be seen if he they let him return punts now.

    It'll be Wilson. As far as Joe McKnight? He's inactive.

    He called a fair Catch :wink:

    Guy can catch, just not run it back. To be fair to Jimmy, Cotch did the same thing last year. Our blocking was atrocious.

    I don't know. With Revis, Cromartie and Wilson all playing, I wouldn't want anything happening to any of them. Opposing team may be kicking from their own 20 more often than not anyway.

    Wilson this year as he will only be in on the nickel dime packages, then Joe McNight if he grows up this next year, coming to camp in shape, ready to hit and hold on to the ball

    I said this in the punt return thread a couple weeks back, Rex doesn't play scared. He puts his best players out there in a position to make plays. Putting Wilson at PR, gives him the best player back there to make a play. injuries happen but thats part of the game, Rex is going to do whatever he has to do to win the game he is playing not right now, not worry about what ifs.

    What if kyle wilson steps off the curb this morning and is hit by a bus? What if he trips on something and rolls his ankle pretty badly and can't play monday?

    It's not like its unprecedented, look at what aaron glenn used to do when he returned for us? he made plays and got us great field position. Wilson will do that for us, and more.

    How was he more important now? Then he was a #2 corner and now he's a #3.

    Your argument totally lacks any sense. If what you said were even remotely true then Wilson would have been returning punts all summer. He wasn't.

    Brad Davis? Don't you mean Brad Smith? Cotchery took over because Leonard broke his hand, I think it will be 1) Wilson, 2) Leonard, 3 Cotchery.

    he returned punts in practice. He didnt return during the games, for the same reason you don't play guys late into games. The games do not count, so why risk unnecessary injury? Especially when you have a guy you clearly want too evaluate in larry Taylor?

    Wilson is our punt returner in the regular season, and I really think this was going to be the case, with or without revis.

    Lowery has been decent at PR in the past.

    Because he will now (hopefully) be an integral part of special teams.

    So then your argument is he would have returned them once the season started anyway? I think it will still be Leonhard. It isn't like he can't get it done.

    I don't know, ask the OP, i just answered his question. but in the defense of the OP, its not like Rex came out and said X is going to return punts this season, so it is a fair question.
