You’re pretty much in bad-ass-status if the NFL looks to create a rule based solely around you. It was shot down earlier today, but the Devin Hester Rule was on the table and being considered.
The League was considering legislating against punting out of bounds — which seemed to be the norm the past few seasons regarding Hester’s ability to find the end zone seconds after that ball hit him in the mitts.
Kind of a corn-ball rule and proposal, but still pretty cool if you’re Hester.
I guess that’s bound to happen when you house 11 returns after only two short seasons in the NFL and you house the opening kick of Super Bowl XLI.
