Bush ties record with 2 punt return TDs (AP)

 
Reggie Bush of the New Orleans Saints tied an NFL record by returning two punts for touchdowns in the same game Monday night against the Minnesota Vikings. Bush was 12th player in league history to do it. The last was Eddie Drummond of Detroit against Jacksonville on Nov. 14, 2004. Both returns came in the second half and were crucial in helping the Saints turn a 20-10 deficit into a 27-20 lead. (link)
