Josh Allen is doing something no NFL quarterback has ever done
Josh Allen is the first quarterback in NFL history to rush for two touchdowns in each of the first three games of a season.
Josh Allen has accomplished something no NFL quarterback has ever achieved, tied for the NFL lead with Baltimore Ravens running back Derrick Henry in rushing touchdowns. Through three games this season, Allen has scored six rushing touchdowns, establishing himself as the all-time leader in career rushing touchdowns among quarterbacks.
His start to 2026 has pushed him into the realm of some of the best running backs in NFL history. Allen entered the 2026 season with 79 rushing touchdowns in eight years, averaging 9.9 per season, and has already surpassed that average in the current season. His scoring résumé extends beyond rushing, as he has thrown 225 touchdown passes in his career.
With 87 total touchdowns for Buffalo, including his two career receiving touchdowns, Allen is tied for the most touchdowns from scrimmage in Bills history, alongside Andre Reed and Thurman Thomas. A single rushing or receiving touchdown will allow Allen to claim the franchise record all to himself.
