Kamara amassed 172 yards from scrimmage and tied an NFL single-game record with six rushing touchdowns in a 52-33 victory over the Minnesota Vikings at the Mercedes-Benz Superdome. It's only the fourth time in NFL history that a player has scored six touchdowns in a game and the first since Gale Sayers in 1965. The only other player to score six rushing touchdowns in a game was Ernie Nevers in 1929. Photo by the New Orleans Saints
