A rushing touchdown in Week 15 also gave Hurts the single-season mark for an Eagles quarterback, and according to John Gonoude, Hurts just moved past Jack Kemp (40, 1957-69) for the 4th-most career rushing TDs by a QB in NFL history, trailing only Cam Newton (75, 2011-21), Josh Allen (49, 2018-present) and Steve Young (43, 1985-99).
