Forget excitement on kick returns. The Niners need someone who can secure the ball safely. After last year’s playoff experience, there is nothing, repeat, nothing more important on special teams than ball security, and a guy who can safely make a fair catch is a much better option than a guy who is a threat to break a big one but puts a ball on the turf now and again.

jenkins and james are not punt returners…they are wide receiver and runningback.. im sure they would like to use james but if anyone remembers the preseasson. james was horrible at returning punts…he muffed like 5 in one game….seriously. jenkins is just not playing because now ginn will fill the williams spot on wide receiver. dont fret. this coaching staff knows what they are doing.

I thought that LaMichael James was working out as a kick returner

Why not use him ? or Jenkins ?

This move has no bearing on AJ Jenkins.

AJ is part of the 53 and will be active this week.

Hall is going to the PS in case he needs to come up for Ginn.

All this means is that AJ and LMJ are not slated for KR duty, which is no surprise.

This team is deep at all positions. If you notice, the article said PRACTICE SQUAD not active roster. Jenkins and LaMicael James are already on the active roster .. Hall will probably be activated to the 53 man roster in a few weeks after Kyle goes on IR… Baalke did his homework in the offseason , this was one of the reasons Jacobs/James were brought in b/c of the wear and tear on Gore/ Hunter..This offense will probably be more explosive.

I guess AJ Jenkins is turning out to be a dissapointment.

Whatever happened to next man up? Jenkins and James are accumulating dust by being inactive. Let em loose!

I suppose it’s a nice signing for the practice squad…surprised they wouldn’t look at bringing back Rock Cartwright though.

Also looking for either AJ Jenkins or LaMichael James to step up as well.

Go Niners!
