How many yards away is Saquon Barkley from Eric Dickerson's rushing record?
Saquon Barkley will have one more chance this NFL season to break Eric Dickerson's rushing record and he'll have the opportunity to do so against his old team, the New York Giants, on January 5.
During Week 17 against the Dallas Cowboys, Barkley rushed for 167 yards, putting him up over 2,000 on the season. With hitting over 2,000 yards, Barkley is now the ninth player in NFL history to pass that mark in a season.
But, where does that put him in relation to Dickerson's record that's stood since 1984? Well, Barkley has exactly 100 yards to go to tie Dickerson's record, with 101 yards the number he needs to beat the long-standing statistic.
It's a very doable number for Barkley, who has averaged 122 yards per game this season. Will he break the record? We'll have to wait and see!
