Jahmyr Gibbs Could Shatter Scrimmage Record | Detroit Lions News
from Detroit Lions News Today | 2 Min News | The Daily News Now!
Jahmyr Gibbs is poised to shatter the NFL’s single-season scrimmage yards record in 2026, with analysts predicting a staggering 2,509 yards—surpassing Chris Johnson’s 2009 mark. The bold forecast hinges on increased usage: if Gibbs sees 400 touches (up from 320 last year), his historic efficiency could explode. Already averaging over 100 scrimmage yards and a TD per game with fewer than 20 touches, he’s primed for a bell-cow role after signing the richest RB contract ever and with David Montgomery traded. Head coach Dan Campbell has made it clear—he’s Detroit’s guy. But challenges remain: with elite weapons like Amon-Ra St. Brown and Sam LaPorta, touches may be shared. Still, Gibbs’ dynamic talent, combined with a stronger offensive line and improved health, could make 2026 his breakout year—and possibly legendary.
