Hurts now has 10 rushing TDs in multiple seasons. Cam Newton is the only other QB to accomplish that feat. Hurts, though, is the only QB to rush for double-digit TDs in back-to-back seasons.

This marked the 10th rushing touchdown of the season for @JalenHurts.

He joins Cam Newton as the only QBs in @NFL history with 10+ rushing touchdowns in multiple seasons and is the first to ever reach the mark in consecutive seasons. https://t.co/BlrcIMXGcj
