The 49ers running back scored a touchdown in the 17th clash in a row.

Like a fantastic baseball game, San Francisco 49ers RB Christian McCaffrey has avoided discussing his streak of straight matches scoring a TD. However, he will be questioned to speak about that again after todayā€™s match.

The reason for that is that he made history vs. the Cincinnati Bengals at Levi’s Stadium, scoring a TD in his 17th straight clash. That evens him with Lenny Moore, the Baltimore Colts Hall of Fame RB, for the longest streak in the leagueā€™s history. Moore did it over the 1963 and 1964 campaigns.

The record-tying TD came with a little more than 3 minutes left in the 1st quarter when the 49ers running back netted from 2 yards out. It was his 12th TD from scrimmage this campaign, tying him with Ā Miami Dolphins RB Ā Raheem Mostert for most in the National Football League.
