Our return game has been basically non-existent. Might as well try something to improve it. Besides, Ohio kid. U of Akron.

If he can fix our return game, good

He's a "meh" returner, and offers zero in the receiving game, or on coverage teams. (20.6 yards/return on kickoffs and 7.7 yards/return on punts) He's also tiny. (5'7" and 153#)

Maybe it’s easier to keep a return only guy because of the two extra roster spots? I don’t know. At one year, $1 million it’s worth a shot.

This guy is tiny. 5' 6" and 156 lbs.
Doesn't strike me as particularly fast in a straight line, but does seem to have lateral quickness and agility.
Hard to tackle a guy that you can't see behind a blocker.

On the other hand, how tough do you have to be to make in in the NFL for 4 years at that size?

His PR for a TD against the Bills was slick. MNF, 2013 if I recall correctly.

If the dude returns a kick for a TD everybody will love him. Nobody will have ever doubted his signing.
I don't know anything about him. He might be just what the ST needs. Judgment reserved.

Yeah, if he proves to be a good returner then it’s worth it ... especially now since rosters will be expanded. Every team will field a return specialist

From a defenders point of view, those who have to tackle those shifty, speedy return guys like Natson..you hope the punter or kicker puts the ball out of bounds or out of the back of the end zone.
I like the signing...

Never even heard of the kid. The approach I like though, acquire specialist.....isn't the new roster size 55?

why did we sign this guy? To carry on the tradition Josh Cribbs Eric Metcalf Leroy Kelly Gerald Mcneil Dino Hall Man, I loved that dude. When I was young, my friends and I played football non-stop. When we weren't playing outside, we were playing APBA football inside. 1980. My team was the Browns. Facing the Cowboys in the Superbowl. Three plays left, the Browns "bend but don't break" defense forced a punt. Dino Hall to the house on a 68 yard return! The Browns win the Superbowl! The Browns win the Superbowl! That's the moment forged in my brain every time I see his name... back to your regularly scheduled program...

Very reasonable.
Obviously, just from the structure there, he will be a bubble guy. May not make the team, if he does, may not make every game day roster.
Browns is the Browns
... there goes Joe Thomas, the best there ever was in this game.

I’d assume he’ll be right on the bubble. If we draft someone or find a better option he’s expendable obviously
