2010S ALL-DECADE TEAM – RETURN SPECIALIST

STARTER: DEXTER MCCLUSTER

ALTERNATE: TYREEK HILL

Last, but not least, we have our return specialists and we settled on Dexter McCluster being the main guy to field kicks and punts. McCluster, or Run-DMC as Chiefs fans often called him, was a stellar return man during his four years as a Chief. He returned three total punts for touchdowns and made it to a Pro Bowl in 2013.

Tyreek Hill was our other return specialist, though he’s gotten away from doing so as he’s been more transitioned into a WR1, which is why we put him as the alternate here. Hill had four total punts returned to the house while also returning one kickoff for six points.

The Chiefs have had some great return specialists over the last decade, so it was tough to narrow it down, but these were ultimately the two we opted to go with.

The 2010s were good to the Kansas City Chiefs. They found their franchise quarterback, lights out wide receiver, and dominant tight end along with some stars on the defensive side of the ball as well.

While it was tough narrowing this list down, the three of us felt like this all-decade team could go toe-to-toe with just about any all-decade team in the league.
