CHARLOTTE, N.C. -- Carolina Panthers running back Christian McCaffrey with a 9-yard run in the first quarter of Monday night's game against the New Orleans Saints broke the franchise's single-season record for yards from scrimmage.
The eighth pick of the 2017 draft surpassed DeAngelo Williams' record of 1,636 yards set in 2008. McCaffrey entered the game with 1,637 yards, 926 rushing and 701 receiving.
McCaffrey is on track to set several marks this season. He came into the game needing 333 yards to become the 10th player in NFL history with 2,000 yards from scrimmage in his first or second season.
