The wideback has run to history.<\/p>\n

The San Francisco 49ers’ Deebo Samuel rushed for the 19th touchdown of his career on Sunday a 28-16 win over\u00a0the Seattle Seahawks, establishing a new all-time record for rushing TDs by a wide receiver.<\/p>\n

Samuel set the record on a 1-yard score in the third quarter to give the Niners a 21-10 lead. It was Samuel’s only carry of the game, but it was part of a stellar overall day as he had two total TDs with seven receptions for 149 yards.<\/p>\n

Samuel, who’s now run for a touchdown in three straight games, broke a tie with Hall of Famer Bobby Mitchell, who had 18 career rushing scores.<\/p>\n

Of particular note is that in Mitchell’s first four seasons with the Cleveland Browns, he scored 16 of his 18 rushing scores when he was primarily playing running back.<\/p>\n
