One of the things that meant the most to me as a football player was trying to live up to the greats who came before me. For that reason, being one of the six running backs in NFL history who've rushed for 1,000 yards in eight straight seasons or more is one of the

Always great to catch up with @davidmeltzer and his crew at Office Hours. Check out the full episode now:

For my episode of #8x1K, I enlisted the help of someone special — my son, @BeaverFootball running back @skylerjackson06. Watch and listen to Skyler as he tells my story.

Coming tomorrow, the final episode of #8x1K. This is a career milestone I’m extremely proud of. I could only control what I could control on the field during those eight seasons. Every time the @RamsNFL handed me the ball, I stood on business. Excited for you guys to see this

The #8X1K finale is this week and as you all probably know, its about me. I don't love to talk about myself, so I have a special surprise in store for this episode, dropping on Thursday! Keep it locked!

@thurmanthomas @NFL Check out this run from @thurmanthomas. First, the discipline to press the line of scrimmage from a single back formation and the vision to see the initial hole was closing play side, but due to pressing the line of scrimmage the backside lane was there. The footwork on the

Throughout the early 90s, one of the best offenses in football history leaned on @ThurmanThomas and he delivered with consistent excellence, including a @NFL MVP campaign in 1991. His name doesn’t always get mentioned with his peers, but it should. The stats tell the story in

This week, #8x1K highlights a man who has a gold jacket but still seems to be an unsung player from his era – @thurmanthomas. A model of consistency for the 90s @BuffaloBills, Thurman was an absolute workhorse for one of the premier franchises in the #NFL at the time. New episode

Not only did @LT_21 break the single-season touchdown record in 2006, he did it in Week 14! This game was part of a streak of eight straight weeks with multiple TDs. Legendary season. Legendary player. #8x1K

It’s rare that you have a player come into the league and seemingly re-create how players at a long-standing position are utilized and need to be defended against. But that’s what happened when @LT_21 came to the #NFL. At the height of his career he was the MVP and set a

It’s #NFLDraft week and the #8x1K spotlight turns to a player involved in one of the most massive draft week trades ever. In 2001, the @chargers traded the 1st overall pick to the Falcons, moved down five spots and still nabbed the best player in the draft, @LT_21. But that

@curtismartin @Patriots @nyjets @NFL @NFLLegends Drafted 74th overall in 1995, Curtis Martin made the rest of the league look foolish, rushing for 100 yards and a touchdown in his rookie season opener. The rest, as they say, is history. Ten straight seasons of 1,000 rushing yards followed. #8x1K #NFLDraft

From 1995-2004, while other running backs got the headlines there was not a single back as consistent as @curtismartin. Despite being a third round pick, Curtis produced mind-boggling numbers as a rookie. That was just the beginning of 10 straight 1,000-yard seasons. In the

Next up on #8x1K is a man who was often overlooked, but one who never underproduced. @Patriots Legend. @nyjets Legend. The one and only @curtismartin. New episode drops tomorrow across all platforms. Don’t miss it.

Thanks to @peanuttillman and @Harp41 for giving me the opportunity to discuss Legends on their podcast. We’re 5 seasons and 55 episodes deep and the stories of some of the NFL’s greats just keep getting better. If you haven’t caught an episode yet, they’re all available on my

Had a great time hanging out with @peanuttillman and @Harp41 for the @NFLPlayersPod!. Full episode:

You want to talk about unfair? Barry Sanders was unfair. You just could not get this man down. That's why during his 10 seasons in the NFL, not only did he go over 1,000 yards rushing every year, only once was he under 1300 yards. What a 🐐! #8x1K

@BarrySanders @Lions @ProFootballHOF Who knows how many consecutive times @BarrySanders would’ve rushed for 1,000 yards had he not retired after 10 straight in 98? . What we do know is he was a human highlight reel and one of the best we’ve ever seen. Dive deeper into the eye-popping 👀stats in this week’s episode

#8x1K rolls along with our second featured runner, the great @barrysanders. The @Lions legend is the only RB to ever rush for 1,000 yards in every year of his @ProFootballHOF career!
