And with touchbacks moved to the 25 how many kicks are we really going to have to cover each game?
Peerman is replacable. If Jeremy Hill goes down we have no true big back to replace him. Instead we spent that roster spot on the running reverend because we absolutely have to have him cover punts 4-5 times a game?
Fej, Core, Wright, Vigil, Burkhead can all do what Peerman does. And they are all younger with more upside.
Peerman is not getting better and a rule change made his job less important. Move on and upgrade the roster.
Know why there isnt a special teams ace that makes a team every year for 6-7 years like Peerman on every team in the league? Because you either improve at your primary position and become so valuable that you special teams role declines. Or the team moves on because spots on the 53 man roster are valuable and special teams contributions can be found in a lot of places.
