Expect Breaston to explode, maybe even for a TD, when the
Rams offer up lots of return opportunities. |

Ginn will get plenty of chances against bad Bengal
coverage units, so expect a big day from him. |

Figurs returns kicks and most of the punts, but Ed Reed
may return a punt deep in Raven territory. |

Allison is the primary kick returner and will remain as
such in this very important season finale. |

The team released Chris Barclay and Henry is the primary
kick returner since his return from suspension. |

This is a meaningless game and Hicks could turn the kick
return duties over to a younger player for a tryout. |

Drummond is handling the dual return role, but being a
season finale could mean play time for scrubs. |

Glenn Holt |

Holt will close in on the century mark as long as he gets
five or so kick return opportunities. |

Bradshaw should continue to handle kick returns, but he
has missed practice time due to a leg injury. |

T.J. Rushing |

Rushing will be busy as long as Craphonso Thorpe is
inactive and T.J. handles the dual return role. |

Don't be surprised to see Isaiah Stanback or someone else
getting some kick return chances this week. |

Cartwright will close in on the century mark, but fall
just short with only four or so chances. |

This is a meaningless game and players will be rested, so
there are no guarantees here. |

Andre Hall |

Hall will do well as long as he is the only one handling
the five or so kickoffs that Minnesota will offer up. |

The Chiefs will avoid Washington as much as possible on
their limited number of kickoffs. |

Jerious Norwood |

The Seahawks can be vulnerable on kickoffs and Norwood is
a threat to go the distance at any time. |

Chris Carr |

Dominic Rhodes is playing a big role on offense, so Carr
should handle the kick returns once again. |
|

Devin Hester |

Hester is lethal when returning kickoffs and punts, so he
is a threat to go the distance at any time. |

Stanley did very well on kickoffs last week and will do
so again, but Marques Hagans may also help out. |

Nate Burleson |

Josh Wilson should be back this week and might steal a
kick return or two away from Burleson. |

Roscoe Parrish |

Parrish handles punts, but he also may return more
kickoffs to give Terrence McGee a much needed rest. |

Cason may get five or so return chances, but the Packers
cover kickoffs extremely well. |
