    Sure seems like it to me. After he dropped that pass in the end zone a few weeks back, it's like they lost confidence in him at WR and gave him a demotion. Playing on STs wouldn't exactly promote healing of broken fingers. But maybe there's another explanation.

      Can't speak to being a WR but Coates was credited with the tackle on the first 2 Steelers punts. I like having a burner on the field who's willing to go down and make a stick. Keep him out there.

        And others ...

        I stand corrected then, thanks. I had 100 yds receiving per game as a border between "very good" and "stellar". I defer to the wisdom of the board to the contrary!

          you don't have to use your hands the same way to make a tackle as you do to snatch a football out of the air.

          this is why you see some DB's with clubs on their hands.

            Why you talking about Ike Taylor's hands?

              That would be clubs *instead* of hands!!
