Across the NFL, players were feasting on big plays during Thanksgiving week, but the fastest time from a ball carrier in Week 13 came Sunday from a player who made headlines earlier this season for fumbling the ball out the back of the end zone without being touched. But this time, New York Jets wideout Adonai Mitchell made sure to secure his first career touchdown on a 52-yard pass from quarterback Tyrod Taylor while reaching 20.97 mph in the process.
Fields is averaging 59.3 rushing yards per game, more than some of the high-profile running backs in Jets history: More than Breece Hall's average in 2023 and 2024; more than Le'Veon Bell in 2019 (and Bell was paid $13 million per year); and more than Jets legend Matt Snell in the 1968 Super Bowl season. At his current pace, Fields will finish with 949 yards, almost tripling Geno Smith's team mark for most rushing yards by a quarterback in the Super Bowl era (366 in 2013).
