Highest yards per rush since the merger (min. 500 attempts) De'Von Achane 5.6 Bo Jackson 5.4 Jamaal Via @PFF on X

What happened: PFF applied a 500-attempt minimum for its career leaderboard. Achane reached that threshold after three NFL seasons.

Why it matters: The benchmark adds weight to Achane's pursuit of the 2026 rushing title. His extension runs through 2030 with $32 million guaranteed.

By the numbers: Achane averaged a league-leading 5.7 yards on 238 carries in 2025, one-tenth above his 5.6 career mark.

What to watch: His early-season workload will test whether that efficiency holds in an expanded role.
