Crowder is listed at 5’9” and 175 pounds, making him undersized by wide receiver standards, but with outstanding quickness and burst, as well as great ball-handling skills, he has a knack for making the big play. Similar to Indianapolis Colts receiver T.Y. Hilton, he has the ability to make plays all over the field despite his lack of size. Like Hilton, he can work both out of the slot and on the edge of the field. But his dynamic kick returning skills are what shine brightest, as illustrated by his runback against the Syracuse Orange this weekend.

That's awesome, thanks Chuck.  
 
Makes the video of the return that much more meaningful after having read the analysis.  Love the way he threads that needle between the two defenders.  
 
Edit: Crowder:
 
GREENSBORO — For the second straight week, Duke senior Jamison Crowder received ACC Player of the Week honors. Crowder, last week’s ACC Receiver of the Week, is this week’s ACC Specialist of the Week, the league office said. The ACC honor is the seventh of Crowder’s career.
