Among all QBs in league history, Hurts has the most rushing touchdowns (29) in his first 50 career games.

Today is Hurts’ 48th career NFL game. Making the TD total even more notable is that Hurts was a backup for the first 12 games of his career.

Last season, Hurts joined former Panthers quarterback Cam Newton as the only quarterbacks in NFL history with 10-plus rushing touchdowns in multiple seasons.

Hurts is the only player to do in back-to-back seasons.
