The Facts:
It's too soon to say who will be returning kickoffs for the Vikings this season, but they do have a No. 1 punt returner. That would be Moore, who averaged a team-high 11.7 yards on 21 returns last season and is the early leader at the position. "Mewelde, as of right now today, is our punt returner," special-teams coach Paul Ferraro said.

Fantasy Football Diehards Line:
Moore also is in the running to be the kickoff returner because the coaches seem reluctant to risk Koren Robinson, who made the Pro Bowl last season as a returner but has moved up to No. 1 wide receiver. ... Moore said he just wants to contribute. "I love playing football and competing," he said, "so being able to get on the field in any way is great. Some people wish they could get on the field more."
