It is not out of the ordinary to see a kicker or punter come through with a tackle after a returner has gotten past the rest of the kicking team. But you may never see a bigger hit delivered by a kicker than the one by Pat McAfee of the Colts on Trindon Holliday of the Broncos during a kick return.
McAfee did have an advantage on this tackle. At 6-foot-1, 233 pounds, McAfee has a decided size advantage over Holliday who is just 5-foot-5, 170 pounds. McAfee is also lucky he wasn't flagged for a helmet-to-helmet hit (see the second GIF below)...
