Packers have plenty of return options

Green Bay — On Nov. 22, 2015, the Green Bay Packers found themselves in a quandary.

In a blowout win over the Minnesota Vikings, quarterback Teddy Bridgewater lofted a throw to Kyle Rudolph that sent Micah Hyde racing in pursuit.

Hyde, whose job it was to cover tight ends all season, missed with a diving attempt at a tackle. The lunge aggravated a nagging hip injury, and Hyde spent the remainder of the half feeling numb.

Hyde's absence in the secondary was overshadowed by the fresh vacancy at kick returner, where Hyde himself had taken over for rookie Ty Montgomery, who won the job out of training camp.
