I'm not even sure he has good straight line speed.
On kick returns he plays fast because he's just decisive. He picks his gap and hits it as soon as he has the ball in his hands.
Someone like Hughes looks genuinely explosive with the ball in his hands. But if Hughes is more to the 'Dante Hall' side of the spectrum, leaning on acceleration and agility, Pringle is clearly on the 'Tamarik Vanover' side in that he's gonna pick a spot and go. He'll rely on a little physicality to get past the first line and then hope he maintains enough momentum to get the edge and go.
