Experiment? He was one of the top returners in the league last year. When you lose key special teams players like the Bengals have this year it's not all on Erickson. I do agree though that the fumbles are a big issue. You simply cannot fumble the ball on special teams. Those are game changing plays. Miraculously, he has fumbled 6 times and only lost 1 this year. That's simply luck, but if you can't hang on to the ball you cannot be a returner at any level of football. The fumbles are certainly cause for concern and a potential change moving forward.
