Jamison Crowder turns triple no one has done since 2001

The New York Jets have turned it around, albeit way too late. They are on a winning streak and much of the credit for the victory over the Cleveland Browns on Sunday should go to Jamison Crowder.

The wide receiver accomplished a feat that has not been reached since 2001.

He threw for 40 yards passing, had 90 receiving yards and 10 rushing yards.

Per NYJets.com:

■ Crowder chalked up 92 yards on seven receptions, including a wide-open 30-yard hookup for the Jets’ third and final touchdown, from Sam Darnold early in the third quarter;

■ He had 43 more yards on his drop-in-the-basket pass to Braxton Berrios off an end-around thrown down the right sideline for the Jets’ first TD;

■ Finally, J.C. added 14 more yards on an end-around to the Browns 16 to set up the hosts’ second TD, another open target from Darnold to TE Chris Herndon.

With at least 90 receiving yards, at least 40 passing yards and at least 10 rushing yards, he became the first Jet to clear all three hurdles in the same game and only the fourth NFL player to do it since 1948, according to 360.sportradar.com.

The most recent player to do it was New England’s David Patten, at Indianapolis in 2002. The other two achieved it in the 1958 season — Tom Tracy three times for the Steelers, Billy Ray Barnes once for the Eagles.
