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.
While Gilbert did return three kickoffs earlier in the season for 69 yards with a long of 32 yards, the Steelers have since decided to use Toussaint, Coates and occasionally wide receiver Cobi Hamiltonas their deep returners.
Toussaint led the team in total kickoff returns with 13 for 278 yards and a long of 33 yards during the regular season. Coates, on the other hand, returned just 6 kickoffs for 150 yards with a long of 44 yards during the regular season while Hamilton returned five kickoffs for 83 yards with a long of 20 yards.
As a team, the Steelers averaged 21.5 yards per kickoff return during the regular season and that ranked them in the middle of the league when it comes to that stat.
With freezing rain expected for Sunday’s game in Kansas City against the Chiefs, it’s doubtful we’ll see very many touchbacks on kickoffs during that contest. On the flip-side, let’s hope that the Chiefs aren’t needing to kickoff very much on Sunday.
The Steelers acquired Gilbert via a trade with the Cleveland Browns just prior to the start of the 2016 regular season. The former first-round draft pick has played very few snaps on defense since arriving in Pittsburgh with the bulk of them coming in the Steelers week 4 home win over the Chiefs.
In addition to being occasionally used as a kick returner by the Steelers, Gilbert has also received some playing time on other special team units. During the regular season, he played 112 special team snaps in total.

Anyone is better then toussaint, he honestly was maybe the slowest non-emergency kick returner in NFL history... Everytime I saw him lining up back there, I was straight up like
And Green is just a waste of money at this point. I wouldn't be surprised if he never played another snap for us again.
game push back to 8:30 at night do to the weather
