Devin Hester’s returner career was the most comprehensive in NFL history.
Devin Hester, the Halley’s Comet of returners, had the most complete returner career in NFL history.
“One of the things he did this week was reach out to c, who had success in the return game after the age of 30… You don’t have that breakaway speed, that make-you-miss in a confined space when you’re 30, 31.” And Brian Mitchell informed him of this. It becomes more of a collaborative effort, with the ability to read their blocks and have their trust.”

Return specialists are the NFL’s version of comets, in terms of both their on-field performance and their duration of excellence. Comets are celestial missiles of ice, dust, and gas that fly through space, with a fiery head followed by a gaseous tail. According to NASA, these are “cosmic snowballs of frozen gases, rock, and dust,” with the dust and gases forming a tail “that stretches away from the Sun for millions of miles.”
Before the 17th century, experts thought comets could only be observed once. That changed in 1705, when English astronomer Edmond Halley, to cite NASA again, “used Isaac Newton’s theories of gravitation and planetary motions to compute the orbits of several comets” and discovered “similarities in the orbits of bright comets reported in 1531, 1607, and 1682.” Halley hypothesized that they were two separate comets that would reappear in 1758. Halley died in 1742, and what became known as “Halley’s Comet” reappeared 26 years later.
