Lamar Jackson passes Randall Cunningham for fourth all-time in QB rushing yards

Lamar Jackson just moved into fourth place all-time for quarterback rushing yards, surpassing Randall Cunningham.

Lamar Jackson made history on Thursday night, as the dual-threat quarterback’s 8-yard carry in the first quarter Thursday against the Cincinnati Bengals put him into fourth place all-time for quarterback rushing yards, surpassing Randall Cunningham.

Jackson entered Week 11 needing just 11 rushing yards to move past the former Eagles and Vikings star Cunningham (4,928) for the No. 4 spot.

Jackson now trails the all-time leader Michael Vick (6,109 yards), Cam Newton (5,628), and Russell Wilson (5,197).

Heading into Thursday night, Jackson’s 48.1 rushing yards per game were tops among NFL quarterbacks.

Jackson is only the second quarterback in NFL history to rush for 1,000 yards in a season (joined by Vick), and he’s the only signal-caller with multiple 1,000-yard seasons.
