Rookie wide receiver Dohnte Meyers fielded a kickoff at the four-yard line, but his momentum carried him out of bounds almost immediately... To be fair, Meyers also started that game with an 81-yard kickoff return that set the Bengals up at Miami's 10-yard line. Burrow and the offense took advantage, scoring a touchdown just three plays later.

Meyers had 81-yard return for TD setup but also muffed return at 4-yard line.

Meyers, a rookie wide receiver, had mixed performance on kickoff returns in Week 5 against the Dolphins. He muffed a kickoff return at the four-yard line, with his momentum carrying him out of bounds almost immediately, setting Joe Burrow and the offense up in the shadow of their own goalposts. However, earlier in the same game, Meyers had an 81-yard kickoff return that set the Bengals up at Miami's 10-yard line, leading to a touchdown three plays later. The source notes the frustration with the kickoff return unit: 'There's clearly potential for big plays, but the execution hasn't always been consistent.' Kickoff Return Unit grade: 79% (C+).
