Benching him does nothing,all it does is stir around his confidence.In the NFL you need to learn from your mistake and move on.I hate when coach's bench players it does nothing basically.Let players play a learn what they did and move on unless they do very very bad like ruin the game multiple times then do something.As for nelson he is a 4th WR so why bench him makes no sense if you ask me.

Anyone remember the Seahawks playoff game when Grant had two early fumbles? You always keep your best players on the field if you want to win.
One of the only reasons I see for benching a player is if he does something boneheaded. Like Jolly's headbutt penalty. You just can't do that.
However, in this situation I still say you bench Jordy. It's not like you're pulling him out of the game completely because its' only one play. It'd be different if he were a starting WR and we benched him. But you cannot turnover the ball on a kick return. Your offense can't establish a rhythm when they don't get the ball and if your defense stays on the field for too long they'll wear out. After fumbling two kick returns already it's not about accountability or punishing a guy, it's about trying to win the game.
