Erickson is the definition of a "Steady Eddie," both as a returner and a receiver.
You know what you're going to get from him. He'll do the job, but he's not exciting.
Erickson doesn't have enough speed and agility to really be a threat to take it to the house.
His longest PR this year was 29 yards, which ranked 17th in the league.
He has 0 return TDs (both KR and PR) in his five seasons in the league.
He has been periodically in the Top 10 a few times before though in terms of YPR (including this year at PR), he's just not a home run threat.
