What happened: Allen eclipsed 5,000 career rushing yards, a mark only four other quarterbacks in NFL history had reached: Lamar Jackson, Michael Vick, Cam Newton and Russell Wilson.
Why it matters: The total reflects how much of Allen's career production, including 80 rushing touchdowns by mid-September, has come on the ground, a rare profile for a passer.
By the numbers: Career rushing yards: 5,000-plus, fifth quarterback in NFL history. Career rushing touchdowns: 80 as of Sept. 13. Rushing touchdowns in 2026: 8 through five weeks.
What to watch: Allen's rushing yardage and touchdown totals will keep climbing against the other four members of the club.
