KJ Jefferson secures latest Arkansas record with early touchdown pass against FIU

Published:
KJ Jefferson has long been known as one of the best quarterbacks in Arkansas history. Now the quarterback has the all-time passing touchdown record, thanks to a catch by Jaedon Wilson.
Despite the tough season for the Razorbacks, Jefferson has only elevated his position after he entered the season in the top 7 for 7 different offensive categories in Razorbacks football history as he enters his senior season.
The pass early in the 1st quarter against Florida International gave Jefferson 65 passing touchdowns, and he already held top marks for total yards (9,510) and he is closing in on the top mark for passing yards. Jefferson needs just 27 yards to become the all-time leader, and pass Tyler Wilson.
Jefferson will need to reach back for more after FIU tied the game on the ensuing drive with 10:42 remaining.
