The following 2005 and 2006 season were equally if not more productive for Welker as he expanded his role on the team from just returning punts and kicks to also playing wide receiver. In the 2005 and 2006 seasons combined, he caught 96 passes for 1121 yards. Spending more time playing wide receiver didn't stop Welker from still be very effective as a punt and kick returner. In 2005 he gained 1379 yards on 61 kick returns and in 2006 he returned 48 kicks for 1064 yards. On the punting side, he had a total of 84 punt returns for 768 yards during the 2005 through 2006 seasons. By the end of the 2006 season he was Miami's all time leader in kickoff yardage and returns and second a time in punt yardage and returns. Amazingly durable, Welker in his three seasons in the NFL, has never missed a game due to a injury.
