Detroit Lions special teams coordinator Joe Marciano said he still has not settled on a kick returner with less than a week to go before the team's season-opening game against the New York Jets at Ford Field.

Marciano said "about eight guys" are in the mix to return kickoffs at some point this fall, including Jamal Agnew, Kerryon Johnson, TJ Jones and Brandon Powell.
