As of Super Bowl XLII, there have been three TDs as the result of punts and all three have occurred on blocked punts. Terry Brown of the Minnesota Vikings scored a touchdown in Super Bowl IX against the Steelers by recovering a blocked punt in the end zone. Derrick Jensen of the LA Raiders scored by recovering a blocked punt in the end zone against the Washington Redskins in Super Bowl XVIII. Eric Johnson of the Oakland Raiders recovered a blocked punt and returned it 13 yards for a TD against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers in Super Bowl XXXVII. The return of an unblocked punt for a TD has not happened in Super Bowl history.
Through Super Bowl XLIII, there has never been a punt returned for a touchdown in a Super Bowl game.
The Green Bay Packers who won the first two Super Bowls (1966 & 1967 Seasons) finally returned to Super Bowl XXXI for the 1996 Season, where Desmond Howard, Kick Returner for the Packers, returned a kickoff 99 yards for a touchdown. He was awarded the title of MVP of the Super Bowl, first time honor for a Special Teams player.
In Super Bowl XXXIII in Miami, the Atlanta Falcons' Tim Dwight (nicknamed "White Lighting") returned a kickoff 94 yards for a touchdown against the Denver Broncos.
Herb Adderley of the Green Bay Packers was the first NFL player to return an interception for a touchdown in Super Bowl play. He intercepted a Daryle LaMonica pass and returned it 60 yards for a touch down in Super Bowl II.
