Texans released KR Trindon Holliday from the practice squad. I wonder if he'll get picked up. Top-end speed, but very small.

Since it looks like we are in a little bit of a flux at at KR, this could be an option.

However, I don't believe we have the roster space to allow this luxury.

Its a possibility. The guy runs a avgs a 4.2

Our KR game woes aren't really to blame on one guy. I think we could put Hester back there and we would still be averaging 5 yards per punt return.

Better than Indianapolis at .7 lol

The problem with our KR game is that Goodson doesn't seem to be able to judge when to bring the ball out. If you can't take the ball to the 30 on every return now, you might as well take a knee in the endzone. With the Panthers getting called for penalties on their kick returns, those Goodson returns to the 21 or 22 yard line turn into starts on the 10 when you factor in penalties.

Love Trindon. Him and Demps were the fastest players in CFB while he was still at LSU.

But like others are saying, we aren't struggling at KR because of Goodson but more because of the new rule. At least Goodson adds something else to the team. Trindon Holliday would have to add more than just his KR abilities in today's game considering the KR is being devalued.

I honestly think he knows and can judge, but he is so anxious to make a play because he never gets PT.

That may be true. It's a shame that Goodson doesn't get time in this offense, because his skills are tailor made for it. Oh well, we have the 43 million dollar guy in front of him.

The dude is 5'5 RB/KR...he would have no real use on our team considering KR has been made pretty obsolete with the new rule

Many thought the new rules would make KR's obsolete. However, this has been proven to be false....there are a ton of kicks being brought out of the endzone.
