Has he had any experience? He’s quick and has some wiggle but I’d like to find someone with experience who doesn’t fumble. It would be nice to find someone who is a threat but at this point in the season security trumps everything.

Big return threats also risk fumbles. Would rather have someone who can get 10-15 yards on a punt return and secure the football every time, than a guy who might score a TD but is more likely to fumble

Rivera loves scrappy hard working players so why not damon sheehy guiseppe, the guy who lied his way to the nfl.  He has good speed and did return return a kick for a td in the preseason.

I actually loved this guy's story, and would be on board with bringing him in.

How about somebody who can make a fair catch and not fumble?

Honestly the Panthers might be better off just not sending anyone back to return punts. Just send everyone to block it every time. It's a bold strategy but 0% risk.

Samuel has almost no experience as a punt returner.  

Him and even Wright would have to prove to me they can’t in practice. But since they haven’t been used thus far in their careers, maybe they have.

The risk is you get more penalties (offsides, running into kicker, and roughing the kicker) and extend drives. I'm sure someone in our similar predicament has considered it though.

    • Little worried about Jarvy Shoulder and that torn cuff, it's needed surgery for 2 years now and he's gonna play with it injured again next season.    I like the toughness but would definitely prefer it to be fixed. He's an intritical player on the team going forward.    Also I was high on pain pills last time I wrote about saving cap space but I didn't go into detail cause I wouldn't have been able to do so. "still on a ton of pain medication but not as nearly as many, think I'm down to 23 pills a day from 32 a few days ago, 18 of them are for pain management in some form or another."     But I digress let's get to the point I was trying to make in my last post about saving, I'll now use Jarvis as an example.    Let's say the canes spend 23m of the 28m in space they have available. Then have Jarvis get surgery and put him on LTIR at the start of the regular season.  You let the cap space sit til the trade deadline. At the deadline that cap space would have accural on it and the team can use that space and spend 24m on incoming salary for the rest of the season. Let's say they bring in 5 players and send out two. "player A has an 8m AAV contract" he'd cost Carolina 4m the rest of the season. Player B makes 10 "cost of 5. So forth and so forth.  Using that accural system and the Jarvis LTIR, the Canes could then go into the playoffs with a healthy Jarvis and be 19m over the cap legally for a cup run. The more cap space available at the start of the season, the larger the accural would be at the trade deadline.    That was the first part of what I was going to try and articulate the other day but I'm on 35mg of oxy every 6 hours plus ketorolac and two other pain pills and another for kidney spasms.    Have a wonderful night everyone
