Holmgren Says Bumpus Still Punt Returner; Taylor on Thin Ice

I was reading the sports section of the Everett Herald today because I couldn't find a newspaper, and coach Holmgren said Michael Muffapunt is still  the punt returner:

"He's really a good punt catcher, and he misjudged it," Holmgren said. "(The Rams') Donnie Jones got off a beautiful punt, and Michael, like an outfielder, misjudged the ball. It doesn't happen very often, and I don't think it will happen with Michael very often."

He's a good punt returner, and I'm glad it looks like he'll be on the team for now. Now, Holmgren mentioned this on Courtney Taylor:

"[his] role has changed for us."

Branch and Engram are expected to be back unless they collide with each other going after a poor pass from Brian Russell and they suffer concussions.

It would be Branch, Engram, Bumpus, Taylor, McMuffin, Colbert, and Robinson. Obviously one of them has to go. McMuffin had a better game last week and had some nice footwork on that catch down the sidelines that set up the Duckett TD in the first half. No point in cutting Colbert, Bumpus looks like he is safe for now, and Robinson hasn't played yet. In all likelihood Taylor is the odd man out with Jordan Kent in the practice squad, and hopefully Coutu also goes now that Mare is hitting touchbacks and is proving himself an adequate replacement for that other kicker.

The Herald also plagiarized reported that Mo Morris and Seneca Wallace would be active for the Giants game so this bye, this win, and the health couldn't have come at a better time.

Who do you think goes? And do you think we could see some possible trades instead of cuts?
