NFL Tight End Renaissance: Record 20 TDs Sunday

Published September 29, 2026 · Updated September 30, 2026 · Fox Sports

NFL tight ends scored a record 20 touchdowns on Sunday, the most in league history for a single day. The Raiders and Saints led the charge in what is becoming a league-wide 'Tight End Renaissance.'

The Raiders and Saints combined for six touchdowns by tight ends in a single game. Juwan Johnson and Noah Fant each scored twice for New Orleans, while Brock Bowers and Michael Mayer did the same for Las Vegas.

This offensive shift is driven by the increasing use of '12 personnel,' which creates mismatches against defenses. The trend shows no sign of slowing, with tight ends on pace to score nearly 290 touchdowns this season. milkshakeslot.lat
