Ravens QB Lamar Jackson breaks Michael Vick's single-season rushing yards record
BALTIMORE -- Baltimore Ravens quarterback Lamar Jackson set the most impressive record of his young NFL career on Thursday night, breaking Michael Vick's single-season rushing mark by a quarterback.
Jackson, the electric dual-threat quarterback and NFL Most Valuable Player front-runner, eclipsed his childhood idol in the first quarter against the heavy underdog New York Jets on a chilly night at M&T Bank Stadium. He entered the game needing 23 yards to eclipse Vick's mark of 1,039 set in 2006 and gained 27 on Baltimore's opening drive, breaking the record on a five-yard run that preceded a six-yard touchdown by Mark Ingram II to put the Ravens up 7-0.
