Returning kickoffs is a different animal. Gibbs likes pounders who can get that five extra yards on the KR because that adds up over the course of the year and is a more consistent approach. Randle-El might break a couple but he would get nailed inside the 20 more than would be acceptable. Plus injuries are more likely on KR.

I actually think Santana is the best open field guy on the team. If it's the NFC Championship and we're down in the 4th quarter, he would be my Darrel Green.
