Who Leads the NFL in TDs?
The answer may surprise you. The top 3 NFL players in touchdown receptions might not be who you think.
Tom Brady
Tom Brady has the most touchdown passes in NFL history, with 581. Drew Brees is second with 537, followed by Peyton Manning with 539. Brett Favre is fourth with 504, and Philip Rivers is fifth with 421.
Peyton Manning
Peyton Manning has the most passing touchdowns in NFL history with 539. He is followed by Brett Favre who has 513 passing touchdowns. Drew Brees is in third with 499 passing touchdowns.
Drew Brees
In 2019, New Orleans Saints quarterback Drew Brees led the NFL in touchdown passes with 32. He finished the season with just under 4,000 passing yards and a completion percentage of 70.5. Brees has led the league in TD passes six times in his career, including five times in the last eight seasons.
Aaron Rodgers
Rodgers leads the NFL with 44 touchdown passes, and is on pace to throw for 50 touchdowns and just seven interceptions. That would give him a touchdown-to-interception ratio of 7.1, which would be the second-best single-season mark in NFL history, behind only Tom Brady’s 9.0 in 2007. Rodgers is also on pace to throw for 4,956 yards, which would be the third-most in a season in Packers history.
Russell Wilson
With 36 touchdown passes so far this season, Russell Wilson of the Seattle Seahawks leads the NFL in that category. Wilson has been having an outstanding year, and his team is currently in first place in the NFC West with a 10-3 record.
