The Atlanta Falcons released veteran return man Devin Hester on Tuesday, the team announced.
Hester had offseason surgery on his toe and may not be fully healthy.
The NFL's all-time leader in return touchdowns (20) spent the last two seasons with the Falcons and the previous eight with the Chicago Bears.
Hester made a small impact as a receiver in 2014, catching 38 catches for 504 yards and two touchdowns, but didn't catch a pass last season in five games played.
At 33 years old and with minimal value outside special teams, Hester may be hard-pressed to find a new team. Nonetheless, NFL Network's Ian Rapoport reports Hester isn't considering retirement.
