On October 23, 1994, Bailey made the longest punt return in NFL history when he ran 103 yards (94 m) for a touchdown in a game against the New Orleans Saints.

Bailey saw that the ball never bounced out of the end zone and was still in play. He scooped the ball up, and returned it for a touchdown before anyone on the Saints realized what had happened. He was waived before the start of the 1995 season.
