The 'Rushing-TD champions by season' quiz

While the biggest stories of any league’s trade deadline are often the players who have moved, sometimes a team’s decision not to trade a player can be just as surprising. 

Indianapolis Colts running back Jonathan Taylor is one of those players.

With the Colts sitting at 2-7 and sending away key pieces like Quenton Nelson, Keenan Allen and DeForest Buckner among others, there was plenty of speculation the three-time Pro Bowler and 2021 rushing-champion would also be dealt to a contender. 

Instead, Indy held onto their bellcow back, who will likely get a mountain of touches the rest of the way as their best remaining offensive player. Taylor has already recorded 161 carries, rumbling for 656 yards and eight touchdowns while catching 26 passes for 220 yards. 

Which brings us to today’s quiz. Taylor has been one of the most productive running backs in the NFL since his rookie year in 2020, reaching 1,000 yards four times and finishing atop the NFL in rushing touchdowns twice. With that being said, can you name every NFL rushing TD champion since 1990?

Good luck!
