Title: Darren Sproles' last shot, #1 returner
Post by: willie83 on August 08, 2007, 08:40:36 AM
It sounds like this will be his last year with the Chargers unless he really makes things happen, but everybody loves him. He is still slated as the #1 return guy, but he needs to stay healthy and HOLD ON TO THE BALL!

Quote
“He needs to make an impact as a returner,” coach Norv Turner said. “Then there is a place to use him in some other areas.”

General Manager A.J. Smith took Sproles in the fourth round in '05 and likes him still. But he pointed out the obvious inclusion of Tomlinson and Turner, as well as backup fullback Andrew Pinnock, whose future is at running back. Also, there is Tyronne Gross, who spent last year on the practice squad and is seen as having a future here.

“If you don't have LT and Michael Turner and Andrew Pinnock we might be talking about a different role with the Chargers for Darren,” Smith said. “As it is, it's going to be a very interesting camp on the return game.”

Sproles acknowledged there is urgency to his situation this camp but said, “I can't worry about all that. I just got to do me.”

if he scores some touchdowns in this years preseason, that should impress the coaches enough to keep him on the team.

If Darren can just stay injury free he'll be just fine.....

He needs to stay fumble free.
