Falcons release KR/PR Devin Hester

Greatest return man in league history. If we didn't have Dwayne Harris I would be interested in Hester. Maybe he hangs them up..?
Should have picked him

Over Gerri's Wilkerson?
No

A 33 year old return specialist should only be playing out of financial necessity
$3 million was too much for a return specialist

Not for nothing

but I knew a person on the medical staff at the U when Hester was there. They said he was "the least intelligent person that I've ever met, and that includes toddlers".

They said that Greg Olsen was one of the nicest people that you'd ever want to meet.

why is that?

KR/PR do involve some violent collisions, but a handful of plays for very significant dollars isn't all that bad.

I'd rather be a backup QB, or a punter/kicker, but I'm thinking a couple plays a game might be worth the risk, even at league minimum.

That's "violent collisions" at this point for more than a decade. And he's not 6'3" and 225. Time to hang them up, and if he doesn't it says economic need to me.

From what I've read and heard that would make him the black sheep of that family.

Even Olsen on that Miami football team rap song had a few cringeworthy bars if I remember correctly
Wow

How did you hear you that? You must have inside information on the team...I bet you have access to the internet.

I can see why YOU would be interested...NICE Move
Changes to the rules regarding kickoffs

Really diminished this guys value. Tony Dungy kicking to him to open the game has to be one of the dumbest coaching moves in Super Bowl history
