Green and Bold: Who Will Return Punts?

In 2016, Hyde returned 11 punts for 64 yards. He had the most impact, however, in 2014, when he returned 14 punts for a whopping 221 yards and two touchdowns.

Green Bay has a history of impressive return specialists, but not recently. The name that comes to mind first, of course, is Desmond Howard; his 99-yard kickoff return in the third quarter of Super Bowl XXXI earned him the MVP award.

There was also Allen Rossum, who brought his return specialty not only to Green Bay but other NFL franchises, as well, with more than 10,000 total return yards and eight touchdowns in his career overall.
