Kyren Williams Extends Touchdown Streak as Rams Defeat Raiders
Los Angeles Rams running back Kyren Williams recorded 76 rushing yards and two rushing touchdowns in the Rams’ 20-15 victory against Las Vegas.
Williams has recorded a rushing touchdown in nine consecutive games, tied with Shaun Alexander (nine consecutive games in 2005) and Ezekiel Elliott (nine in 2022) for the fourth-longest streak of games with a rushing touchdown since 2000.
Only Pro Football Hall of Famer LaDainian Tomlinson (18 games from 2004-05), Priest Holmes (11 games in 2002) and Jonathan Taylor (11 games in 2021) have longer streaks since 2000.
Williams, who is 24 years and 55 days old, is the third player younger than 25 years old with a rushing touchdown in nine-or-more consecutive games in NFL history, joining Jonathan Taylor (11 games in 2021) and Natrone Means (nine games from 1993-94).
