Funny thing about kick returners.. Just about any position is eligible, but only a handful get the job and if they're successful it's tough to knock someone out of the job.
Although Tate was never a fan favorite he lasted for quite some time as a return guy until Erikson came along and dethroaned him.
I just don't see the Bengals cutting Erikson quickly to replace him with any unproven rookie unless he gets seriously injured or develops a bad case of fumbleitis.
Not just anyone can catch kicks from 210 feet away and run head on into 11 guys trying to kill them..
