All 32 NFL teams' all-time rushing leader rankings for running backs. See every NFL franchise's leading rusher and record holder for most rushing yards.
Below is a list of the all-time rushing leaders for all 32 NFL franchises. The NFL teams are listed in alphabetical order, along with each team's leading rusher over the course of their time with the team.
Some NFL franchises have had elite run games, but most teams haven't had a player finish with 10,000 or more yards in their career with the team. Only three teams have had two 10,000-yard rushers.
This list also tends to lean toward players who played in the past. None of these players were on an NFL field in 2023, with the most recent player, Mark Ingram II, last playing in 2022.
