Lamar Jackson ran his way into the history books on Thursday, breaking Michael Vick's single-season quarterback rushing record during the Baltimore Ravens' 42-21 win over the New York Jets.
Jackson finished with eight carries for 86 yards and improved his season total to 1103 – 64 more than Vick's mark of 1039, which he set in 2006.

The records didn't stop there for Jackson as the 22-year-old also threw for five touchdowns to tie Vinny Testaverde's single-season franchise record of 33.
Despite a solid effort from quarterback Sam Darnold, New York struggled to contain Baltimore, falling to 5-9 for the season.
