Devin Hester On The Return

Chicago’s Devin Hester has been fairly quiet on returns this year, but you don’t have to tell Panthers punter Jason Baker just how dangerous he is. Hester had a 50-yard return against the Panthers last year and might have gone the distance had it not been for a shoestring tackle by Baker.
Baker said the key to stopping Hester this year is simple – don’t punt as much.

“You can’t give a guy like that eight or nine chances like we did last year,” Baker said. “We have to move the ball well. But the reality is there are good players in the league you face every week but I would be lying if I said Devin wasn’t unique. He’s very good and makes good decisions and has the ability to take advantage of mistakes. We’ll undoubtedly have to cover some punts this week, so that’s a big challenge.”
