Manning led the league in return average and number of 30+-yard returns, despite only starting half the season.

In 1968, his 40 punt returns and 12-yard return average led the nation.

One of the teams behind the Jets on punt return average?

His career kickoff return average of 26.5 is among the all-time top 10 for players with at least 100 returns.

He had 313 yards rushing and a 21.6 yards per return average.

He returned 14 kickoffs for 322 yards, a 23.0 yard per return average.

And he returned 14 punts for 76 yards, a 5.4 yard per return average.

The punt return average they allow the opposition is 12.1 yards (24th).

But is it the aim of the special teams simply to keep the return average down.

He holds the record for the highest kicoff return average at 30.56 yards per attempt.
