Jahmyr Gibbs' Stat Mirrors NFL Legend Marshall Faulk
Former Alabama Crimson Tide running back Jahmyr Gibbs has taken the NFL by storm, being one of the best dual threat running backs we have seen in quite some time.
Since entering the NFL in 2023, Gibbs has tallied 3,190 yards from scrimmage and 31 total touchdowns.
When David Montgomery missed time due to injury, Gibbs seized the opportunity to shine, emerging as one of the league's most dominant backs.
Last season, Gibbs' 302 touches totaled 1,929 yards, an astounding 6.4 yards per touch. Among players with a minimum of 300 touches in a single season this century, only Marshall Faulk has recorded a higher average, with 6.6 yards per touch during his remarkable 2000 season.
In just his second season, Gibbs' explosiveness is a true game-changer in the Lions' dynamic offense. His speed, reliable hands, and knack for breaking tackles make him one of the league's premier backs.
Still two years remaining on his contract (three if they use the fifth-year option), he will be an incredibly cost effective weapon for the Lions, who are looking to build on a stellar 2024-25 regular season.
As Detroit continues to aim for playoff and championship contention, Gibbs' dynamic skill set will remain a cornerstone of their offensive identity.
With his unmatched versatility and relentless drive, Gibbs is poised to be a centerpiece in the Lions’ offensive scheme. If he continues to develop at this pace, Detroit’s offense could solidify itself as one of the NFL's most feared units, with Gibbs at the heart of their success.
