Before he rose through the ranks of scouting departments in the NFL, new Tennessee Titans general manager Ran Carthon was a running back in the league, spending two seasons with the Indianapolis Colts.
Carthon played sparingly, appearing in nine games over those two seasons, but he did manage to find the end zone twice — and the internet has managed to find at least one of those scores.
Back in 2005, Carthon got into a game against the Jacksonville Jaguars in Week 2, where he was given the ball from the six-yard line while Colts starting back and Hall of Famer, Edgerrin James, was on the sideline.
Carthon promptly took the handoff from Hall of Famer Peyton Manning and punched it in for six to vulture the score, giving him his first career touchdown in the NFL.

Carthon’s second career touchdown came in 2006 in a Week 2 win over the Houston Texans, when he scored from three yards out.
