Running back Rico Dowdle bet on himself twice in two years, signing one-year contracts with the Dallas Cowboys and Carolina Panthers and rewarding both clubs with 1,000-rushing-yard campaigns in 2024 and 2025. Now, he’s finally getting a multi-year deal, signing with the Pittsburgh Steelers on a two-year contract to reunite with former head coach Mike McCarthy.
Dowdle was an under-the-radar signing for Carolina ahead of 2025, but after RB1 Chuba Hubbard missed a few games due to injury, the 27 year old ran rampant. In Week 5 against Miami, he rushed for a career-high 206 yards with a touchdown before rumbling for another 183 and adding 56 through the air in Week 6 against Dallas. He’d have just one more 100-rushing-yard game with the return of Hubbard, but he did enough for Pittsburgh and McCarthy to lock-down his services for multiple seasons.
Which brings us to today’s quiz. Dowdle is one of 91 players in the Super Bowl Era to rush for at least 200 yards in a single game. How many of those players can you name in 12 minutes?
Good luck!
