Deebo Samuel Sets Super Bowl WR Rushing Records vs. Chiefs

49ers rookie WR Deebo Samuel is headed to the record books.

The South Carolina product set a Super Bowl record for rushing yards by a receiver less than three minutes into the game, scampering for 32 yards on a reverse.

Early in the second half, Samuel broke the single-game Super Bowl rushing record for a wideout when he took his third carry of the game for another 14 yards. He passed former Seahawks WR Percy Harvin, who held the mark for most rushing yards by a receiver with 45 in Super Bowl XLVIII.

Samuel was taken No.
