Oklahoma State has not returned a punt for a touchdown since Jalen McCleskey did it at Texas Tech in 2015. In that time, OSU has ranked 87th, 22nd and now 114th in yards per punt return. Even worse, it has seen fumbles and bad decisions from its primary punt returner, McCleskey.
The junior receiver has never been an elite punt returner, even by recent Oklahoma State standards. His totals are a modest 33 returns for 5.8 yards per return and one touchdown in three seasons. He only has six games with 10 or more punt return yards and only one with more than 40.
