Johnson's Quest for Record Books

Dec 28, 2009 at 09:42 AM

**

NASHVILLE, Tenn. --** Titans running back Chris Johnson leads the NFL with 1,872 rushing yards on 322 carries. Additionally, he has 47 receptions for 483 receiving yards, giving him a league-high 2,355 total yards from scrimmage.

With one game remaining, Johnson is on the cusp of reaching several historical markers. Among other potential milestones, he needs 63 rushing yards to become the franchise's all-time single-season rushing leader (1,934 by Earl Campbell in 1980), 128 rushing yards to become the sixth player to reach 2,000 in a season, and 75 scrimmage yards to break Marshall Faulk's 1999 NFL record of 2,429 scrimmage yards.

Titans running back Chris Johnson needs...

• 63 rushing yards to break Earl Campbell's single-season franchise rushing record

• 75 scrimmage yards to break Marshall Faulk's NFL's single-season scrimmage yards record

• 100 rushing yards for his 11th consecutive 100-yard game (T-2nd, NFL history)

• 128 rushing yards to become the sixth player in NFL history with 2,000 rushing yards in a season

• 128 rushing yards and 17 receiving yards to become the first player in NFL history with 2,000 rushing yards and 500 receiving yards in a season

• 234 rushing yards to break Eric Dickerson's NFL single-season rushing record
