BALTIMORE (WJZ) -- There's another record in the books for Lamar Jackson.

The Ravens quarterback surpassed the record for most yards rushed by a quarterback in a single season.

The record fell during the team's first drive. Jackson had a 20-yard run, and after a two-yard run to tie the record, he ran for five yards to the Jets' five-yard line.
