'Devin Hester, you are ridiculous!': How one Super Bowl play turned Bears star into a Hall of Fame icon

Devin Hester will be the first player elected to the Pro Football Hall of Fame primarily as a kick returner.

Hester returned a career- and league-high 47 punts with three resulting in touchdowns in 2006 .

He returned two kickoffs for touchdowns and scored after returning a missed field goal 108 yards .

The Colts had a game plan for Hester that revolved around him not touching the ball.

Devin Hester received the opening kick at the 8 -yard line and ran up field to the 20 .

The closest a Colts defender would get to tackling him was safety Marlin Jackson , who was inches away from him.

Hester: "The words that came out of my mouth [when he saw the ball headed his way] were 'Holy s---' ".

Vinatieri : "When I dove and didn't touch him at all, I was like 'damn' It's funny because after one play, my jersey is dirtier than anybody's on the field" Hester: "There was too much open field, so I knew he wasn't going to get me" The Bears' momentum would continue on the next drive as they opened a 14-6 lead but the Colts took control in the second quarter .
