NFL: Saints Alvin Kamara Ties NFL Record With 6 Rushing Touchdowns vs Vikings

Alvin Kamara tied an NFL record by running for six touchdowns in a game and finished with a career-high 155 yards rushing to help the New Orleans Saints beat the Minnesota Vikings 52-33 and clinch a fourth straight NFC South title.

Kamara sprinted for a 40-yard touchdown on the game’s opening drive. He added scoring runs of 1, 5, 6, 7 and 3 yards against a Minnesota defensive front hit hard by injuries.

Kamara equaled a record set by Hall of Fame fullback Ernie Nevers in 1929 for the Chicago Cardinals.

“The offensive line gets the game ball for sure, kudos to them,” Kamara said.
