Please no.

Thank you, please say no!!! I don't want to see Reggie Bush on special teams unless it is a do or die situation.

If he's healthy enough to play, he can return punts.

This is good news.

Tell me it ain't so Sean!

If a fully healthy Bush can't return punts, we may as well cut our losses.

What a puss.

If he's 100% healthy, and by all accounts is, then why not use him the way he's supposed to be used?

He could just as easily be hurt on a swing pass as on a punt return. Do we not want him to take any swing passes either?

I agree 100%. Bush is most dangerous with the ball in space and returning punts is a good opportunity to get him that space.

I don't care if he is just returning punts; I'm ready to watch him play again.
