The Bengals had the 4th best LOS starting position in the NFL last season. Whatever/however we are doing it is not hurting the team. Tate averages about 5 yards less per return than the elite NFL returners and is very sure handed with the ball. I get he doesn't run back a lot of TDs, but he doesn't hurt the team.
