Rushing Leaders
This page contains the leaders in various rushing statistical categories from the statistics we were able to glean from various published sources.
We apologize in advance as It is very highly likely that we are missing players who should be on these lists because we do not have their statistics, especially if they played before 1980. If you have the statistics for any players that would qualify for any of these lists but do not appear here, please contact us to let us know and to send us any documentation you have about the statistics so that we can update the list.
We know that Emlen Tunnell, Ted Dean, Joe Iacone, Lew Benn, Chris Sydnor, and more belong somewhere on this list.
