Who will return punts?
David Moore – Dallas Morning News
Four players have been returning punts in this camp: Felix Jones, Patrick Crayton, Terence Newman and rookie DeAngelo Smith.
Jones is the most intriguing. Running with the ball isn’t the question. Catching isn’t either. Let’s just say his ability to judge the ball in the air and get himself in position to run after the catch is a work in progress.
“He’s had some good days and some average days,” special teams coach Joe DeCamillis said.
And the rookie?
“He’s done a good job,” DeCamillis said.
DeCamillis said he would probably look at the younger guys, meaning Jones and Smith, in the first two pre-season games.
