Christian McCaffrey's latest record showcases incredible longevity

Christian McCaffrey showing off longevity with his recent records

The most impressive part of McCaffrey's records is how far ahead he is of current active players.

For the receiving TD mark, the next closest active player is Washington Commanders back Austin Ekeler with 30. He has played sparingly in five games this season.

The next closest is New Orleans Saints running back Alvin Kamara with 26, who has declined from his prime years. No other active player is even in the ballpark.

McCaffrey, who set another all-time mark on Oct. 4, becoming the fourth player to ever amass over 6,000 scrimmage yards with two teams — 49ers and Carolina Panthers — joining Eric Dickerson, Warrick Dunn and Faulk, even has a year on those other two. McCaffrey is 30, while Ekeler and Kamara are 31, and all three hail from the 2017 draft class.

Other records McCaffrey can boast include being the first running back with over 100 receptions in three different seasons, being the third member of the 50-plus rushing and 25-plus receiving touchdowns club and having the most games with 100-plus rushing yards, 50-plus receiving yards and a touchdown in both.

Even more impressive is that McCaffrey has missed significant time in three of his 10 professional seasons and has already set these marks, which already seem to stand for quite some time, given how much he's still playing and how far ahead he is of everyone else. The man is a blueprint dual-threat offensive weapon.

Basically, once McCaffrey calls it a career, get him fitted for a gold jacket as soon as possible. It may be a while before we see these records get broken again.
