Well, there is precedent...

Remember a MNF game back in 2013 against a tough MIA pass rush and the only time Brees could do damage in that first half against that defense was on wheel routes to Darren Sproles...

MIA had to tried to adjust and account for Sproles, but it was too much and the Saints were able to break the game open in the second half in the Dome...

So, there are ways to get short, speedy guys open, you just have to create isolation matchups and kill ''em on quick drops with open field from sit-down routes on opposite field...

I recently watched his high lights again. He is the best on returns in the NFL. Don't integrate him so much that he gets injured.
