NFL stats and records, Week 12: RB Jahmyr Gibbs closes in on Lions legend

Our Summary

In Week 12 of the 2025 NFL season, several players achieved significant milestones:

Jahmyr Gibbs of the Detroit Lions scored three touchdowns against the New York Giants, including a 69-yard overtime run, leading to a 34-27 victory. Gibbs, who has 44 career touchdowns, is closing in on Barry Sanders' record of 47 touchdowns before turning 24. He also became the first Lions player since Sanders in 1997 to rush for over 200 yards in a game.
Jaxon Smith-Njigba of the Seattle Seahawks set a new franchise record for receiving yards in a season, surpassing DK Metcalf's 2020 record. With 1,313 yards, he is leading the league and is on pace to break Calvin Johnson Jr.'s single-season receiving record. Smith-Njigba has achieved this despite Seattle being the most run-heavy team in the league.
