As we all know, Devin Hester shines on prime time television. Hester broke Deion Sanders’ record on prime time television a season ago and has always performed well under the lights. Hester returned the opening kickoff for a touchdown in the super bowl while as a member of the Chicago Bears.

Hester seems to be a different player under the lights. We should expect a big game from Hester in the return game come next Monday night which will allow the Falcons’ offense to have great field position throughout the game. Not only will Hester be returning kicks, but will also be involved on offense as well.
