Why doesn't Austin return kicks?

[DCH]

Serious question, TA is one of our two serious weapons, and his punt returns are a threat to go all the way every time. I like Benny well enough, and he consistently gets us decent KR yardage, but why wouldn't we have TA back there in the endzone returning kicks with the potential to do like Patterson did to the Raidahs today?

He dances too much... a kr is a catch the ball and hit it type of runner, a 1 cut and go runner. That's not TAS style we will consistently be inside our own 15 with him runner back kicks

Benny was the best returner in the NFC last year. We're set at pr and kr, no reason to mess things up.

yes. that and it's not worth getting him hurt when it's rare to get far past the 20 anymore

Because he would Die

Injury concerns....don't we use him enough as it is?

This is the truth.
