Gilbert Set To Replace Toussaint On Steelers Kickoff Return Team

Pittsburgh Steelers cornerback Justin Gilbert might just get a chance to return a few kickoffs against the Kansas City Chiefs in Sunday’s Divisional Round playoff game.

With running back Fitzgerald Toussaint currently still in concussion protocol, Gilbert reportedly said Thursday that he’ll be on the kickoff return team along with wide receiver Sammie Coates should Toussaint ultimately be unable to play against the Chiefs, according to Mike Prisuta of DVE Radio.

CB Justin Gilbert said he'll work K.O.R. if Fitz Toussaint can't play Sunday.
