    One of my favorite Devin Hester moments isn't shown in this. It was when the Seahawks returner got hurt right before the playoffs and they brought the man Hester to be their guy after he had been out of the leauge for a while. He came in against his old team the Falcons and played his heart out. You could just tell how bad he wanted to get in the end zone that game one final time. It was a great one for him though and was so close to taking it all the way twice.

      As a Seahawks fan, I remember being like, whoa, we're bringing Devin Hester back? I was excited to see him play for sure and then all 2 or 3 returns he took back he went fucking ballistic and I think he put it in the end zone a couple of times or at least returned for 90+ yards. Sad that the most penalized team in the league fucked that up for him. Nice to see him play for us though!

    One of the absolute best things I love watching his highlights on kick returns, is his teammates. They all just know how to set it up. And when he gets going, he's always got some people in front of him, setting up the wall. Because they knew, that every time this man touched the football, he had the ability to take it the distance. And knowing that, gave them the ability to fly and put in that level of effort every return and get out in front.

    Ray Guy got in The Hall as the best punter, so it makes sense to have the best return man ever in as well. It wasn't that his skills became less when his return stats started to dip. It was that he educated the league that it was a very bad idea to kick to him. He was able to switch and also became a good receiver (even with Cutler throwing to him).

      Ikr. Crazy thing is I remember watching when they drafted him in the 1st round and I said, “seriously, they’re gonna take a SPECIAL TEAMS “SPECIALIST” with their first pick in the draft? Why? Why? Why? We have much bigger needs and it would be much more valuable to the team to get a player at a more impactful position. Wow, what a stupid pick.”
      …oh I was so unbelievably happy to be that foolishly wrong to think drafting him in the first was stupid. Even looking back on it I’ve thought, “they honestly could have got him in the 2nd, maybe the 3rd. Then they could’ve grabbed a qb/wr/db/etc in the first and been even better.” -but nope, doesn’t matter if they “could’ve” got him later, when that kind of talent is available, you take it immediately…no matter what. So happy the GM for the🐻 was smart enough to make sure they got Devin! Now let’s put him in the HOF!
