Will Sam James catch a pass for a TD & run back both a punt AND a kick-off for a TD ? Like a Sam James Scoring Trifecta?

In the same game? Absolutely not. On the season? I still lean no, because a punt return touchdown is extremely tough, both in set up, and in execution. The punter can easily punt it out of bounds, punt it too close to the sideline, or a single person could miss a block / block-in-the-back, and that would negate a return. I do think James has the potential to return a kickoff for a touchdown this year.
