Logan Making the Most of His Chances in Returning Kicks

The Tribune Review says that if there’s one player that has the Steelers eyes these days, it could be rookie back Stefan Logan, who could make the team returning kicks:

Stefan Logan, for his part, is hoping to blow past the other candidates to return kickoffs and punts this season. He may have separated himself from the pack by averaging almost 40 yards on four kickoff returns against the Redskins. “When my (teammates) see a guy who can take it to the house at any moment, they’re going to block their tails off,” said Logan, who is called “Half Pint” by his Steelers teammates. The question the Steelers may have to answer in a few short weeks is whether they have the luxury of carrying a player on the roster who may only help them in the return game. “It’s a possibility,” Tomlin said of Logan, who also has lined up at running back and wide receiver but has been focusing solely on his duties as a return man. “He got our attention.” The key for Logan is holding that attention. “I want to show everything I can do in these last two (preseason) games,” Logan said. “I’m sure I’m going to get another shot at it, and I’m sure I’ll do what I can to take it to the house.”
