-The year the return happened.
-The player that returned it.
-The length of the return.

Longest return- 103 yards, Jack Christiansen, Detroit (1956)

[steelerfan513]

Jack Christiansen of the Detroit Lions returned a kickoff 103 yards for a touchdown in the 1956 Pro Bowl.

Hines Ward of the Pittsburgh Steelers returned an attempted onside kick 39 yards for a touchdown in the 2005 Pro Bowl.




The information that you must provide to get the question right has been bolded.

Kind of crazy that there were only two ever and that they were nearly 50 years apart.
