Ahead of the 2026 season, McCaffrey’s 35 receiving scores were tied for first in the Super Bowl era with Hall of Famer Marshall Faulk, who played for the then-St. Louis Rams and Indianapolis Colts.
McCaffrey is now tied for fifth in NFL history for receiving scores by a running back with Hall of Famer Johnny “Blood” McNally, who — like most above CMC — lined up as a tailback, wingback and halfback. Hall of Famer Lenny Moore, a flanker and halfback who played from 1956-1967, is first all time with 48 receiving scores.
The 30-year-old CMC snapped a nine-game drought without a receiving score dating back to last regular season (he had two TD catches in last season’s wild-card round). That streak was the longest of his career, but he’s delivered a reminder that he is still one of the best dual-threat backs in the game — and of all time.
McCaffrey, a four-time Pro Bowler, is coming off a stellar 2025 campaign in which he had 2,126 scrimmage yards and 17 scrimmage TDs, including tying for a career-high touchdown receptions.
CMC is well on his way to the Pro Football Hall of Fame with his latest record-staking accomplishment.
