Unveiled: The Surprising Super Bowl Touchdown Titans You Didn’t Expect to See at the Top
A player matching the record for the most rushing touchdowns in a Super Bowl surely will play on the winning team, right? It wasnât the case with Hurts in the Eaglesâ loss, although he became the first quarterback to rush for three touchdowns, scoring from 1-, 4- and 2-yards out.
Most TD Receptions: 3
Jerry Rice â San Francisco 49ers 55, Denver Broncos 10 in Super Bowl 24 (Jan. 28, 1990)/49ers 49, Broncos 26 in Super Bowl 29 (Jan. 29, 1995)
Catching a record three touchdowns in a Super Bowl was so much fun for the best receiver in NFL history that he did it a second time. Rice caught 20-, 38- and 28-yard scores from Montana in the 49ersâ 55-10 drubbing of the Broncos, which still ranks as the largest margin of victory in the Super Bowl. In Youngâs record-setting performance five years later, Rice hauled in 44- 15- and 7-yard scoring pass in a 49-26 win over poor Denver in Super Bowl XXIX. While several players have caught two TDs in a single Super Bowl, Rob Gronkowski is the only player to do it twice (once with the Patriots and once with the Tampa Bay Buccaneers).
