Cordarrelle-Patterson.return.427

Minnesota Vikings rookie Cordarrelle Patterson set the record for the longest kickoff return for a touchdown in NFL history Sunday with 109 yards against the Green Bay Packers.

The previous record was held by Jacoby Jones who returned a kickoff for 108 yards in Super Bowl XLVII.

Patterson also tied Jets cornerback Antonio Cromartie’s record for the longest play in NFL history. Back in 2007, Cromartie returned a missed field goal for 109-yards.

Both historic NFL plays took place in the same stadium.
