Seattle Seahawks quarterback Russell Wilson had himself a day Week 3 against the Cowboys, setting an NFL record while ensuring his team advanced to 3-0 on the year with the 38-31 win over Dallas.
Wilson threw for 315 yards completing 27 of 40 passes attempted and five touchdowns. He now holds the all-time record for the most touchdown passes (14) thrown through the first three games of a player’s season, passing Chief’s signal-caller Patrick Mahomes who previously held the honor with 13 TDs in 2018.
Wilson connected on three straight scores with Tyler Lockett, then found Jacob Hollister and finally, DK Metcalf with just under two minutes to go in the fourth quarter.
Here’s a look at the play that sealed the deal.
