I do think his blocking on the punt return team is what stands out most favorably.
I agree, he is below average at returning kicks.
He is big, but I would NOT call him physical by any stretch.
What I am noticing his main problem as WR running routes is he can not maintain a high speed when running square-in patterns. It might be his weak knees, but he is fine run a deep route or running in a straight line, but if he has to run a 90 degree corner in his route he has to slow down. Which might explain the whole not getting enough separation from DB issue.
