Personally, if he does see the field, I'd have what he does best. Run deeps routes and keep the defense honest. Hopefully he opens up the field a bit and you can't have others hit the seams.
I don't think it's fear of getting hit. We have seen Ross make tremendous catches while getting blown up in the end zone and hang onto the ball, so I don't think it is so much about him being afraid to get hit. I think his troubles are that he is thinking too much about what he's going to do after he catches the ball instead of focusing on catching it. He is good in the end zone, he sucks mid field.
