Josh Huff Becomes 9th Eagle with Return Touchdown This Season

Bleacher Report MilestonesNov 24, 2014

Philadelphia Eagles wide receiver Josh Huff took the opening kickoff for a 107-yard touchdown in Sunday's 43-24 win over the Tennessee Titans, making him the ninth player to score a return touchdown for the Eagles this year, which ties a single-season NFL record, per ESPN's Adam Schefter.

Huff also set a personal record, as his return was the longest in franchise history, per the Eagles' official website.

The Eagles have 10 total return touchdowns in 2014, with two apiece from kickoff returns, punt returns, interceptions, fumble recoveries and blocked punts.

Running back Darren Sproles, who scored both of the punt return touchdowns, is the only player to account for more than one of the 10 touchdowns.

In addition to Huff and Sproles, the other contributors are running back Chris Polk (kick return), safety Chris Maragos (blocked punt), wide receiver Brad Smith (blocked punt), safety Malcolm Jenkins (interception), cornerback Bradley Fletcher (interception), defensive tackle Fletcher Cox (fumble) and defensive end Cedric Thornton (fumble).

Huff, Maragos, Fletcher, Cox and Thornton have just one career touchdown apiece, while Sproles and Smith have combined for 13 career touchdowns from returns alone.

Maragos is arguably the most surprising member of the group, having primarily made his name in the league as a blocker and coverage man on special teams.
