Saquon Barkley, Ja’Marr Chase headline regular-season stat leaders
Dec 29, 2024; Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, USA; Philadelphia Eagles running back Saquon Barkley (26) runs with the ball past Dallas Cowboys safety Juanyeh Thomas (30) at Lincoln Financial Field. Mandatory Credit: Bill Streicher-Imagn Images Star running backs Saquon Barkley and Derrick Henry wasted no time settling into their new homes.
Barkley, in his first season with the Philadelphia Eagles, became the ninth running back in NFL history to eclipse the 2,000-yard mark on the ground. He finished with 2,005 to lead the league, edging Henry (1,921 rushing yards), who was dominant in Year 1 with the Baltimore Ravens after spending the first eight seasons of his career with the Tennessee Titans.
Henry helped Baltimore to a 12-5 finish, which was good enough for an AFC North title. The Ravens were able to come out on top despite having to contend with the Cincinnati Bengals, who had the NFL leader in passing yards in Joe Burrow (4,918 yards).
Detroit Lions signal-caller Jared Goff (4,629 passing yards) and Tampa Bay Buccaneers quarterback Baker Mayfield (4,500) rounded out the top three in that category.
Burrow also topped the league in passing touchdowns with 43. Mayfield and Baltimore's Lamar Jackson were tied for second with 41.
Ja'Marr Chase was a big reason why Burrow put up such gaudy numbers. The 24-year-old wideout finished with 127 receptions for 1,708 yards and 17 touchdowns -- all NFL bests.
Rookies Brock Bowers (Las Vegas Raiders) and Malik Nabers (New York Giants) cracked the top five in receptions, with Bowers snatching 112 catches to land in third and Nabers reeling in 109 passes to end up in fifth.
Cincinnati defensive end Trey Hendrickson was a force to be reckoned with on the other side of the ball and piled up 17.5 sacks. Myles Garrett collected 14 for the Cleveland Browns, and the Denver Broncos' Nik Bonitto totaled 13.5
Zaire Franklin of the Indianapolis Colts led the league in combined tackles (173).
