This video took like 5 hours just to research and record, and a couple more to edit. There were over 130 plays in this video. If you are curious, I used Pro Football Reference to find all the clips. It didn't have the second miracle at the meadowlands (I had to add it in afterwards) so there's a chance I may be missing a couple returns. EDIT: Here's one that I missed from 2009: ua-cam.com/video/oEjDRi2PnoU/v-deo.html
Most punt returns for TD since 2009: Devin Hester 7 Darren Sproles 6 Marcus Sherels 5 Six players tied with 4: Travis Benjamin Antonio Brown Julian Edelman Tyreek Hill Dwayne Harris Patrick Peterson
People don’t understand how incredible this play was in context The Eagles scores 21 points in the last 8 minutes to tie the game AND THEN won with this play
The punt where the Broncos tried to pin the Raiders inside their own ten yard line, picked up at the 1 by Dwayne Harris, I have to admit this. Both the kicking and the receiving teams did a perfect job on both ends. Really couldn't be any more perfect than that.
2008 lions would be all Calvin Johnson. That 2009 game against the browns though! Stafford separating his shoulder but throwing the game winning touchdown the next play
@@ncg1294 that's fine since that Lions team was 2-14, and I'd consider them one if the worst teams of all time. Especially since experts said the 09 Lions was weaker and worse than the 08 Lions. And it's okay if 08 Lions best plays was most Megatron. Best player, best plays 🤷♂️
There are certain moments that as an NFL fan I feel lucky to have witnessed, moments that really showed a player at the top of their game. Devin Hester was one, CJ2K, Adrian Peterson and Calvin Johnson are just a few more that spring to mind.
im glad you made this video. returners deserve a lot more appreciation. this video brought back so much nostalgia from them early to mid 2010s days with all those awesome returners that i got to watch on tv and use in madden. such fun times. hester, jackson, mccluster, ginn jr, mariani, peterson, cobb, cribbs all of them man
18:47 bro gets hit before the ball arrives gets up complaining the ball pops out of the scuffle at his feet and he picks it up and returns it, of this wasn't recorded i would not believe it 😂
I love when you're watching some guy running, you think 'holy shit that guy is fast' and then he hits the afterburner and blows everyone's minds. The exact opposite feeling of watching a kicker or a QB trying to run down a receiver. Great compilation!
I can tell these aren’t in exact chronological order because while the one for Bengals-Seahawks around the 7-minute mark was being shown, the final score for the Ravens-Cardinals game was shown below it, and then that punt return was shown right after 😂
We can all agree Pat Mcafee or however you spell his last name is one of the greatest NFL punters ever, and most entertaining. But I see so many punt return TDs against the Colts that I feel bad for him. Not on Pat. He’s not out there to tackle, although he’s damn good at it!
"Devin Hester, you are REEEEEDICULOUS!!!" =) Appreciate the work you put into these. If you're looking for ideas, how about biggest upsets of each year? (Should be easy to research, like the 0-11 Raiders beating the 7-3 Chiefs in week 12 of 2014.) Another one which I have no idea how you'd research is most annoying fan sounds picked up on broadcast. (Like the 'wooooooo......' guy in the one Broncos TD in this video.)
Man the touchdown by Jacoby Jones was good, but the dancing🕺🏿 at 12:43 is ABSOLUTELY LEGENDARY LOL #SaluteKing #ChiefsKingdomRepresentative✅ #JJEqualsCheatCode🔑
Highlight Heaven, you are incredible. You have by far the most unique NFL videos on UA-cam. We all sincerely appreciate the time and effort you take to make these videos. Please keep up the good work
Tony romo 21 yard scoop and scramble on 2nd and 10, for a 1st down. Patrick Peterson 98 yard OT punt return for a td. Losing the division at 7-9 in week 17. Peterson returning another for a td escaping a crowd of people. Drafting Greg Robinson with the 2nd pick in 2014 instead of Mack or even taking Donald with that pick. These are just some of the moments that solidified how bad we were from 05-16. 13 years. We sucked ass and swallowed. I’m so glad we’ve put that era behind us with Jeff fishers high school offense. Low quality talent on both sides of the ball. We actually have a coach and a team that can be a contender.
Lie down on your stomach with your head sideways Position your phone so that the edge of the screen is about 2-3 inches from your nose Close the eye that's closest to the bed/couch/etc. Thank me later
I obviously knew how good Patrick Peterson was as a corner and a punt returner, but I’m not going to lie...I didn’t realize how many touchdowns he had. The only one I REALLY remembered was the 98-yard OT one against St Louis
For my Packer Backers, 8:30 Randall Cobb, 10:50 Cobb again, 16:39 for Micah Hyde, 19:48 the Micah Hyde return I was looking for, 21:00 Hyde vs Lions. Only 5 returns!? Come on Pack!
wheres the ones from corradale patterson? he ran one back when he played for the pats.. couple plays before his punt return he made a big reception and fumbled the ball
Thank you for making this, I really enjoyed this video. As a suggestion that probably hasn't been uploaded before, you could try making a video of "odd throws".

Holy Crap that's insane
Keep up the good work!
Thank you so much for doing this
Thanks for doing that for us!!! 😃
Thanks for the hard work so we can be entertained!!
You never ask a women if she’s pregnant you never go for half price sushi and ya never kick to devin hester
This is a Fact Statement!!!
Amen
All facts
Punter: kicks to Devin Hester
Devin Hester: "So you've chosen death."
And Deshaun Jackson
Man... Devin Hester was something else man... DeSean Jackson too... his was ridiculous!
Devin Hester is a legend! He’s underrated af in Madden 💯
Yup, those were the good old days. They didn’t last.
@@connorkane1542 nope
@@renewedservant7 yesirrrr
If the Bears had kept him as a return specialist instead of trying to make him an all-purpose receiver, Hester would have added many to his record.
Most punt returns for TD since 2009:
Devin Hester 7
Darren Sproles 6
Marcus Sherels 5
Six players tied with 4:
Travis Benjamin
Antonio Brown
Julian Edelman
Tyreek Hill
Dwayne Harris
Patrick Peterson
Then you realize Hester has 7 more...
Tyreek would probably have the most if he wasn't moved off of punt returns after his rookie season.
Cordarell Patterson got hella
@@Duh_wettest95 Cordarelle Patterson has a lot of kick returns, but i dont think he's been the punt returner much
Mind you that Devin wasn't even punt returner for an excerpt of time at the Bears. Man would be GUARANTEED 1st Round HOF if Bears worked him more.
THIS is legendary content. God’s work.
True dat
Yeah your God can't do his own work and he needs your money.
haha yes
Could you do "Best Plays by the Worst Teams in NFL History"?
Ex. 2008 Lions, 2017 Browns, 2000 Chargers
You could literally just put all Devin Hester highlights as this video.
A lot of his returns were before 2009 too lol
I wanna see a compilation of Hester's longest non-TD kick and punt returns
“Desean Jackson GETS A BLOCK! ARE YOU KIDDING?”
Right when I read this comment that clipped happened
Fly eagles fly!
People don’t understand how incredible this play was in context
The Eagles scores 21 points in the last 8 minutes to tie the game AND THEN won with this play
Crugleberry and Friends the block itself it the beat part
@@crugleberryandfriends4740 and you didn’t even get to witness it 😂😂
Punt returns are only satisfying to watch them bring it all the way to the endzone.
The punt where the Broncos tried to pin the Raiders inside their own ten yard line, picked up at the 1 by Dwayne Harris, I have to admit this.
Both the kicking and the receiving teams did a perfect job on both ends. Really couldn't be any more perfect than that.
Marcus Sherels didn't get enough respect in the NFL as a returner. Dude was awesome.
"Oh you like NFL punt return touchdowns? name every one then"
Highlight Heaven:
I love these. Nothing like the sound of a home crowd cheering a punt/kick return. Pure joy!
*Sees Hester in the thumbnail*
*instantly liked the video*
Idk man i like some of that desean
@@DJFrontPaige oh yeah, Jackson's an animal

jpinon403 oh yeah I didn’t mean it as a bad thing for the 2008 team. I’d watch it
add the 09 rams there also
So essentially "Good plays by the Browns since 1999"? To be fair 2007 they were good.
Fun fact: Tyler locketts first career punt return was a touchdown
8:33 Randall Cobb was holding the turbo button lol
It’s funny because he’s never really been that fast so you can tell he’s really trying to not get caught from behind 😂
The Giants have left the chat
I was thinking “our punter was shit”
There are certain moments that as an NFL fan I feel lucky to have witnessed, moments that really showed a player at the top of their game. Devin Hester was one, CJ2K, Adrian Peterson and Calvin Johnson are just a few more that spring to mind.
Percy Harvin Was A Dynamite Returns In the NFL
Played for Vikings,Seahawks, Jets and Bills.
I love how Patrick Peterson has the same announcer for all his touchdowns
Sam Rosen?

As a Giants fan, THAT Desean Jackson return always hurts. Then I remember that return is what ended Matt Dodge's career after 1 year.
We'll never see a returner like Hester again. Perfect combination of raw speed and patience to let the blocks set up.

Wait its all Devin Hester?....Always has been

No it's all Patrick Peterson
Haven't even seen the whole thing yet ngl

I can tell these aren’t in exact chronological order because while the one for Bengals-Seahawks around the 7-minute mark was being shown, the final score for the Ravens-Cardinals game was shown below it, and then that punt return was shown right after 😂
Weird hearing “the rookie Dez Bryant” lol
My Best punt/kickoff returners:
Ted Ginn jr., Devin Hester, Cordell Patterson,
and DeSean Jackson.
As a NY Giants fan, I already knew they couldn't cover a punt to save their lives. This video confirms it.
We can all agree Pat Mcafee or however you spell his last name is one of the greatest NFL punters ever, and most entertaining. But I see so many punt return TDs against the Colts that I feel bad for him. Not on Pat. He’s not out there to tackle, although he’s damn good at it!
Shoulda named it "the deven hester and patrick peterson show" ft randall cobb and jamal agnew
"The Rookie Dez Bryant"- Now that's something I haven't heard in a while
"Devin Hester, you are REEEEEDICULOUS!!!" =)
Appreciate the work you put into these. If you're looking for ideas, how about biggest upsets of each year?

Only the Lions can turn a potential pin down inside the five into a TD the other way.
You are a legend my guy! I appreciate your work.
Pat Peterson almost messes around and got caught 😂😂
You should do nfl “rookies embarrassing vets” plays
You should do “Game Losing Fumbles”
*Juju Smith-Schuster compilation*
@@_mvpjoshdie ?
Ernest byner is a perfect example
@@_mvpjosh he has 2 fumbles lol
Is no one going to talk about the fact that the Chargers actually got a Special Teams touchdown? I thought all they did was give those up...
Dont worry they probably gave up 2 return TDs in each game they got one themselves
Damn “it’s the rookie dez Bryant” that’s WILD
What a great video bro. Feeling Nostalgic from the 2009 highlights 😎
Man the touchdown by Jacoby Jones was good, but the dancing🕺🏿 at 12:43 is ABSOLUTELY LEGENDARY LOL #SaluteKing #ChiefsKingdomRepresentative✅ #JJEqualsCheatCode🔑

0:30 back when my chargers were in San Diego 🥺 the good old days

appreciate it i will
You ever wonder how many NFL players watch your videos
If I'm a punt returner, I want to see Washington and Carolina on the schedule.
Miss the older clean cut players.
i like the part when he returned it for a TD
10 NFL seasons from 2009 - 2019
Raiders only had 1 Punt return Touchdown. Meanwhile Devin Hester had like 7 in that same time span.
lol
Dang, this video probably took a LONG time to make, appreciate your hard work 👍👍
8:31 - Dang, when Corn dropped his head he hit another gear for a couple seconds. Wish that man the best in Houston.
Hester is an exceptional talent. He is probably the best returner in history. A true legend

N Y Giants had a 1-4 record.
You do know what that means.
highlight heaven has got to be one of the most consistently quality youtube channels ever. not even sports related
like yall remember when the videos would go up of highlights like.... as they happened
Glad to see some fast white boys taking back some kicks for TDs
You really made something great here
Punt returns are so fun to watch, thank you for this
As much as we talk about Hester, Pat P's returns were just straight up "I AM THE BEST PLAYER ON THE FIELD" touchdowns lol that man is crazy!
People do be forgetting Devin Hester was the king of these
I liked Dexter McCluster's returns because he's noticeably smaller than most of the other players...so shifty and quick
Most teams: different players for each punt return TD
Vikings: only Marcus Sherels

I like how he didn’t do it from 2006 (when Devin Hester was drafted into the league)
cause these are from the last 10 years
Since 2009 lol
As a Jets fan, I can’t believe Kerley caught a punt without calling for a fair catch, much less returned it for a touchdown
We Needed This‼️✊🏽
4:19 As an Eagles fan I was waiting for this.
Desean Jackson been giving the giants hell on these for years😂😂
I still miss Josh Cribbs. Fun to watch and one of my favorite Browns. Too bad lots of his exciting stuff was brought back by penalties.
Rip juice wrld
russell battiata R.I.P., but his music was trash tho.
@@MemeMan99 disagree
1:59 anyone else see that ref get in the way? Possibly changed the outcome of that play but oh well.
Thank you for curing my boredom. I needed this.

Video idea: 2 point attempts returned to the other team's endzone
don't make that the title just something like it lol
So one point plays?
@@curtiso6252 yeah
There’s a big difference between return men who needs lots of blocking and those who need little blocking because they have speed
This could just be titled "panthers punt team getting burned"
Caleb Hagood yeah but the panthers had a decent amount of returns of their own
If you replace panthers with Giants, now that’s a good title
Unfortunately... we do suck doe lol
Panthers had the most interesting one as well IMO, Philly Brown getting drilled then picking up the ball and running is just so odd
Is it me or does Washington just have terrible punt team coverage? I counted 17 returns against them.
wheres the ones from corradale patterson? he ran one back when he played for the pats.. couple plays before his punt return he made a big reception and fumbled the ball
A giant Devin Hester compilation. There, fixed the title for you.
Nice
Video idea: Every best player for each letter highlights (As in alphabetically)
Good idea
💯 This is the best video you could have made!!! I love the return game.
appreciate it
WOLF Films Presents yeah I’ll try to get that on my archive channel
this is perfect to watch during quarantine
Thank you for making this, I really enjoyed this video. As a suggestion that probably hasn't been uploaded before, you could try making a video of "odd throws". The ones I've seen include:
Left handed
Underhanded
Just hit in the eye
Sitting down
Falling
Stupid laterals that still worked
Whatever it was Dontari Poe did
I think you'd have your work cut out for you!
Edit: I'm not referring to non-quarterback throws, I mean the throw itself is weird.
I'd better go and subscribe
Look at highlight heaven man. So inspirational
OMG this is incredible dedication.
greatest returns that didn't end up in a touchdown
1st half of the video- Devon Hester highlights
2nd half of the video- Tyreek Hill highlights
