Celebrating Terrell Davis on His 54th Birthday
Today marks the 54th birthday of Terrell Davis, a notable figure in NFL history, recognized for his achievements as a three-time Pro Bowler and two-time Super Bowl Champion.
Davis, who was drafted in the sixth round in 1995 after playing at Long Beach State and Georgia, had an impressive rookie season with 1,117 rushing yards and eight total touchdowns. He was a vital player for the Broncos, leading the NFL in rushing touchdowns with 15 in 1997 and 21 in 1998, the latter contributing to his milestone of over 2,000 rushing yards that season.
Despite facing injuries that limited his career after the 1998 season, Davis was inducted into the Pro Football Hall of Fame in 2017. His record of 21 rushing touchdowns in a single season remains unmatched for the Broncos, prompting a quiz about the top rushing touchdown leaders for each NFL franchise.
