wtf we havent had a punt return in 6+ years?

TJ Carrie last year vs Seattle

 

[HNL HI]

oh for real? I seen something on Twitter about bringing in that dude from the Bills practice squad and it mentioned not having a punt return in 6 years.

I was thinking no way that's real but then I thought oh wait RAIDERS.

 

[whoyouthink]

I thought I read that tj had a punt return for a TD last year. Could be wrong

 

[HNL HI]

the article was actually on insidebayarea.

 It's been nearly seven years since the Raiders had their last punt return for a touchdown, dating back to an 80-yard bolt by Johnnie Lee Higgins in 2008.

in other news.

 Rookie defensive cooridnator Ken Norton on DJ Hayden: 'He's really growing into one of the better corners in the league.

Obviously proping up his player but Hayden hasn't played as bad as people have been saying the past few weeks.

 

[The_Isomotion31]

He hasn't been getting as abused as he was. Doing better to locate the ball.

 

[northoaklandfc]

I still have a lot of hope for him. When ever I'm in the stadium I tend to single him out and focus on him. He'll stick to his receiver like glue for a stretch of snaps then give up that one big play or penalty.

He had a stretch of particularly bad games early but he really hasn't been the hole in our coverage lately. I've always felt fans have been particularly harsh on Hayden probably given his draft position. He's certainly making less errors week after week which is a good sign.

 

[MajinZuub]

How many guys from that Johnnie Lee Higgins era team are out the league?

 

[whoyouthink]

Like 80%

 

[Johnny_Cakes]
