Devin Hester's 62-yard Punt Return vs the Packers

Devin Hester's 62-yard punt return for a touchdown in the fourth quarter of tonight's Bears-Packers game leaves him on the cusp of NFL history.
Hester, who hadn't taken a return to the house in nearly three years, broke one by bringing Packers P Tim Masthay's 57-yard boot all the way back and then some.

Hester, who's rarely handled kickoffs since becoming more prominently featured as a receiver in 2008, needs one more TD on a punt or kickoff to catch Brian Mitchell for the combined record of 13. Hester is currently tied for second place with Dante Hall and Eric Metcalf. Having taken eight punts all the way back in his five-year career, Hester needs two more to match Rick Upchurch's all-time mark in that category.

Hester brought back the opening kickoff of Super Bowl XLI vs. the Colts 92 yards for six. But since it occurred in postseason, it doesn't count toward his all-time total. He also returned a missed field goal 108 yards against the Giants in 2006.
