Devin Hester is the greatest return specialist of all-time. And there’s no doubt that the former Chicago Bears playmaker will take his rightful place in Canton as a member of the Pro Football Hall of Fame. Just not as a first-ballot inductee.
During the NFL Honors show, the Pro Football Hall of Fame Class of 2022 was announced, but it unfortunately didn’t include Hester.
There’s been plenty of debate regarding whether or not Hester belonged in the Hall of Fame considering he’s a special teams player — and the only player to make it in solely because of his return specialist status. But there’s something to be said about being the best to ever play your position. And Hester is just that.
