Kareem seems to have the bad luck gene for injuries, but they will still have Sample and Ray to rotate in.
Williams will likely get his shot returning kicks. I am one of those conservative guys about the kicking game and would rather just take a knee unless the ball is short of the goal line. No need to risk injury (a LOT happen on ST) and, worse, a turnover.
That being said, Williams is fresh and I hope he gets a shot and breaks a huge return. Maybe even a few plays for him on offense (like Jet sweeps). I thought he was just a waif that had no sand in his pants when I read about him, but he played very tough in the preseason. Ran with a purpose. Could be very interesting.
I hate to say it, but it almost feels like they are at "anyone but Phillips" stage, even though he had some nice returns...you fear the gaff that costs the team.
I don't know if you can put getting sick in the same category as an injury. Those big guys can get knocked down pretty hard with sickness by losing a lot of weight quickly. Besides the last thing you want is someone with an infection being in the locker room and starting a flu epidemic
Fueled by the pursuit of greatness.
