Mostert joins Jim Brown in unique club after 80-yard TD run

Share

Raheem Mostert joined some pretty elite company with his 80-yard touchdown run during the 49ers' Week 2 matchup with the New York Jets at MetLife Stadium.

Mostert became the second player to have a 75-yard receiving touchdown and a 75-plus yard rushing touchdown in the first two games of a season.

The first? None other than Hall of Fame running back Jim Brown.

Mostert took the first handoff of the game all the way to the house Sunday, showing off his breakaway speed as he raced around the edge.

He finished the first half with 92 rushing yards and the TD, although he didn't return for the second half because of a knee injury. Given Mostert's importance to their offense, the 49ers have to hope it's nothing serious.
