He was front and center. He's going to be our Bethel 2.0 but much better. Hope he gets a chance for some WR time.

I think you’re slightly under rating just how good Justin Bethel was when he went to two or three pro bowls as a special-teams player… The guy was amazing! When they made him a starting cornerback which he never should’ve been he dropped off the map. But for three maybe four year stretch he was the best special-teams player in the league in my opinion by far!

I believe in the 2nd ProBowl year, Bethel had a PFF ST specialist rating twice as high as #2 in the league and higher than #3-#32 in the NFL - combined.
No doubt he was the best in the league

He's back playing ST for Baltimore and had a muffed punt recovery yesterday, still looking good there.

It was a great ST day. We definitely won that phase.

He was good on special teams in preseason also. Love this guy and also hope he gets some play at WR.

Gardeck can be a ST ace for us too. Questionable speed and reaction time as an ILB (maybe gets better with reps and recognition) but is a special team winner for sure.

It is guys like this who we should be holding onto long term as long as we don't expect and ask them to be anything more than a #4 WR/CB and ST gem. I would rather give guys like these 2.5 mil per year contracts than clowns who are here and gone for one year or are injury prone.
