Jay Ajayi Joins Elite Club With Back-To-Back 200-Yard Games

Oct 24, 2016 7:27 AM

Jay Ajayi rushed for 214 yards on Sunday, the second-straight week the Miami Dolphins running back has surpassed the 200-yard plateau.

Ajayi is just the fourth player in the Super Bowl era to post back-to-back 200-yard rushing games.

Ricky Williams, also for the Dolphins, was the last player to accomplish the feat. He did so in 2002.

The only other players to hit the mark were Earl Campbell (1980) and O.J. Simpson, who did it twice (1976 and 1973).
