This camp’s a bit different. Logan is once again bettering straight-line speedster Mike Wallace in the return game, but there are two darting rookie receivers, Emmanuel Sanders and Antonio Brown, who ranked 10th and 11th in NCAA punt return average last season. They’ll work as return men along with Logan in Saturday night’s preseason opener.
“Those guys, they’re some good guys; good, humble guys,” Logan said. “They play hard, they fight through the plays, they’re young, and they’re picking it up as they go. They’re doing a good job. As far as the numbers game, I don’t know. I’m just out here each and every day putting it all on tape, showing what I can do as far as my mobility and letting it all hang out.”
No, the numbers game does not favor Logan. But he’s succeeded in similar circumstance, and then went on to put up some other numbers, the kind not seen since Rod Woodson was a daring, young kickoff return man in 1989.
“I leave all of that up to the coaches and let them evaluate all the players,” Logan said. “I know I’m No. 1 on the depth chart, and I intend to stay No. 1 by putting it all on the line every day.”
