Bears Vs. Vikings: VIDEO Devin Hester’s Record-Breaking Kickoff Return

Chicago Bear Devin Hester set an NFL record during the Bears-Vikings game with his 14th career kick return for a touchdown (kickoff or punt).

Hester took a 64-yard punt return back against the Minnesota Vikings for a TD. It moved him past Brian Mitchell for first place all-time in kicking return scores.

He’s also now tied with Eric Metcalf for most punt return TDs (10). To his credit, Hester has played in 74 career games while Metcalf played in 179.

Hester had tied Mitchell for most combined return TDs in Week 6 when he took a punt back 89 yards for a score. Mitchell recorded his 13 return TDs in 463 career games. It begs the question…how many more returns does Hester have in him?
