The NFL has some records you'd never think would be broken, and one of them is the longest play. It was broken on Sunday, November 13, 2005 by Nathan Vasher of the Chicago Bears. Nathan Vasher returned a missed field goal 108 yards for a touchdown against the San Francisco 49ers.

During the final play of the first half, San Francisco attempted a field goal from 52 yards out. Joe Nedney kicked the field goal, but it was caught in the winds of Soldier Field. Vasher was posted in the end zone just in case the field goal went wide, and the preperation paid off. Vashon grabbed the ball and galloped for 108 yards down the field. Touchdown!

The run back for a touchdown became the longest play and touchdown in the history of the NFL. It replaced another missed field goal returned for a touchdown that went 107 yards. The playmaker was Baltimore's Chris McAlister and it happened against Denver on September 30, 2002.

After the touchdown, Nathan Vasher celebrated with his teammates in the end zone, though Vasher was clearly tired by the run. When asked what he remembers about the run for the touchdown, Nathan Vasher explains, "Just making that spin move to get outside and then seeing that wall of blockers form in front of me. That was a lot of orange, man."

Chris Harris, a Chicago Bears rookie safety, says the play stands out.

"Years from now after I retire I can bring out the film of that and you can see me throwing a block. I told all my friends who called me after the game that that was the type of play you have to see to believe. Personally, I've never seen anything like it in my entire life."
