Jackson becomes fastest quarterback to reach 5,000 career rushing yards in Ravens' 20-10 victory, pushing their record to an AFC-best 9-3.

  • Lamar Jackson, Baltimore Ravens' quarterback, becomes the fastest player in NFL history to reach 5,000 career rushing yards, achieving the milestone in 22 fewer games than Michael Vick.
  • Jackson's achievement came during a game against the Los Angeles Chargers, which the Ravens won 20-10, improving their record to an AFC-best 9-3.
  • The Ravens' defense forced a season-high four turnovers and held the Chargers to 279 total yards, keeping L.A.'s offense under 17 points for the first time this season.
  • With the loss, the Chargers dropped to 4-7, putting their playoff hopes and head coach Brandon Staley's job status in jeopardy.
  • Rookie receiver Zay Flowers had a breakout performance for the Ravens, scoring two touchdowns, including the game-sealing 37-yard touchdown with 1:36 left.
