Cordarrelle Patterson returns a kick for TD

It’s not new news to anyone, Cordarrelle Patterson is one of the best special teams players in the NFL, if not the best. Patterson will prove that once again on Thursday Night Football with a kickoff returned for a touchdown.

When the Vikings have a defensive or special teams touchdown, they are undefeated. While this doesn’t mean we will win the game, it will be a huge step.

Each and every day Patterson shows why the Vikings should resign him and give him a nice contract. Doesn’t he remind anyone else of a bigger Devin Hester? His combination of strength and speed is lethal.

Patterson will have a big game against the Cowboys, and it will all begin with a touchdown on special teams.
