While Chicago Bears fans patiently await their Week 1 showdown with the Minnesota Vikings in one week, most were taking part in watching the first full Saturday slate of college football games.
One moment seemed to catch everyone's attention with a spectacular 75-yard kickoff return from the Furman Paladins. It's not common for an FCS school to receive this much attention, but a bit of nostalgia kicked in with the return of the player: Devin Hester Jr.

Social media lost its mind that the son of former Chicago Bears returner Devin Hester was following in his dad's footsteps.
