Miami Hurricanes continue to make history. Check out the video of the very first dynamic kickoff returned for a touchdown, as scored by former Miami Hurricane running back Deejay Dallas.

After the Bills secured a 31-20 lead in the fourth quarter, the Arizona Cardinals tailback returned the subsequent kickoff 96 yards for a touchdown.

Seems poetic justice that the first kickoff return of the new era was made by a graduate of Hester's school, who just rode into Canton on that route.

Has anybody shaped like DeeJay returned a kickoff 90-plus yards for a TD in the NFL's last 50 years?

He's listed at 5-10, 214 and looks like a fullback ... Yet nobody can get him on the ground or walk him down from behind even though he doesn't look to be moving all that fast.

A pure football player. Would have been big contributor in any era of Cane Football

Devin Hester would average at least a TD per game.

The return was so good, a Bills fan literally fell out of the stands to get the ball. See the end of the clip

Actually he stepped out of the stands and then fell over on his a*s trying to pick up the ball. But the original sentence reads better.

Brian Mitchell comes to mind… other than him I don’t think so.

I realize they are not identical, but...

When the Cardinals were still in St. Louis (and I rooted for them), we had Stump Mitchell returning kicks and punts for us. Similar height (5'9"), and I think Stump started out at as a rookie at a lower weight (188), but if my memory serves me, I believe he was over 200 pounds after a couple of years in the league.

Just a bowling ball of a returner. Loved Stump Mitchell.

You are body shaming DeeJay.

We lift up, not tear down, on CIS meng.

My No. 1 recollection of DeeJay in a Miami uniform was me thinking "if only all all of our players and coaches gave a **** like this dude"

He's an alumnus I would love to see back on the UM sideline as a coach

Looked really fast to me. And his built is perfect. Guys around that height and weight and very hard to bring down, whether as RB or as KR.

DJ was a heck of a player for us. Not Gore - McGahee - Edge good, but pretty **** good nevertheless.
