Not only did the Falcons absolutely destroy the Buccaneers on Thursday night in Atlanta, Devin Hester also managed to break Deion Sanders all-time return touchdown record with the 20th touchdown of his career. Sanders, who is a part of the NFL Network’s gameday coverage, was on hand to watch Hester pass him in the record books in a city that Primetime himself used to play in.

The two have had a relationship going back to Hester’s college days and shared a very special moment during the postgame show, during which Sanders told Hester how proud he was and how much he loved him as a person and a player. Both guys got pretty emotional and, considering all the negative stuff happening in football these days, it was refreshing to see.
