Could the 49ers be making changes at punt returner?

The 49ers might have a punt returner problem.

When returning punts, Ronnie Bell has fumbled the ball twice in three weeks. Both didn’t result in a turnover. One went out of bounds during the Philadelphia Eagles game, and the other, his forearm hit the ground as the ball came out, saving what was a fumble return for a touchdown with the Arizona Cardinals.

Ronnie Bell still has a career to make, but his rookie season returning punts has not been off to a good start. In fact, his special teams in general has been uninspiring.
