I just had a flash of thought about Chase looking up to catch a punt, him failing to wave for a fair catch, and then BOOM he gets lit up and has to leave the game with an injury. I guess running the ball on a kick off at full speed while 11 dudes are coming at you is equally prone for a big injury (I guess 10, who fears the kicker?).
Yeah, he would have to be smart on punt return and only take it if he knew he had room, but besides that initial hit, I think there is less chance of injury than a KR. Either way, I’d do it sparingly and at the end of the game if we needed it.
