[NFL.com] Dante Hall tied an NFL record with his sixth career kickoff-return touchdown, a 96-yarder in the second quarter against the Philadelphia Eagles.
After Philadelphia’s Sheldon Brown scored on a 40-yard interception return, Hall took the ensuing kickoff at his own 4-yard line and started left. He cut back right, sliced through traffic near midfield and eluded a last-ditch dive by new kicker Todd France at Philadelphia’s 40 on his way to the end zone for a 24-6 lead.
It was the 10th kick-return touchdown of Hall’s career, his first since a 97-yard kickoff return against Denver on Dec. 19, 2004.
Hall now shares the kickoff return record with Ollie Matson, Gale Sayers, Travis Wilson and Mel Gray.
