The NFL has changed over the years, with more points due to the development of the passing game.

To date, 27 players have tallied 100 career touchdowns, but several are closing in on the feat.

NOTE: All stats current as of Oct.

29, 2024.

Jerry Rice , WR - 208 Still widely known as the greatest wide receiver to ever play, Rice had an incredible 20-year career with the 49ers, Raiders, and Seahawks.

He remains the all-time leader in receptions, receiving yards, and touchdowns, leading the league in touchdowns twice.

Emmitt Smith , RB - 175 Smith found the end zone plenty during the Cowboys 90's dynasty before finishing out his career in Arizona.

He remains the all-time leader in carries, rushing yards, and rushing touchdowns after playing 15 seasons.

LaDainian Tomlinson , RB - 162 LT's incredible career included his 28 rushing touchdown MVP season in 2006, a record that still stands.

He had over 1,000 yards rushing in each of his first eight seasons in San Diego, and finished out his 11-year career with the Jets.

Randy Moss , WR - 157 Perhaps no wideout has shown more physical talent than Moss, who was a first-team All-Pro four times and led the league in receiving touchdowns five times.

His 23 receiving touchdowns for the undefeated Patriots in 2007 is still the most in a single season.

Terrell Owens, WR - 156 Owens was polarizing off the field, but there was no debate about his on-field dominance.

The five-time All-Pro led the league in receiving touchdowns three times over his 15-year career.

Marcus Allen, RB - 145 Allen led the NFL in touchdowns twice, including his rookie season in 1982.

He was very productive for most of his 16 seasons, including 11 scores in his final season in 1997.

Allen played 11 years for the Raiders before a fallout with owner Al Davis caused him to go elsewhere and join Kansas City.

Marshall Faulk , RB - 136 Faulk was an All-Pro in Indianapolis before becoming the catalyst of the Greatest Show on Turf with the Rams.

He played five seasons with the Colts and seven seasons with the Rams, leading the league in touchdowns twice and winning league MVP in 2000.

Cris Carter , WR - 131 Carter had off-field troubles early in his career with the Eagles before righting the ship as a Minnesota Viking.

The receiver made eight consecutive Pro Bowls with Minnesota, leading the league in receiving touchdowns three times.

ESPN personality Chris Berman made the phrase "all he does is catch touchdowns" famous when describing Carter's production.

Marvin Harrison, WR - 128 Harrison was Peyton Manning's go-to receiver in Indianapolis for much of his career, which spanned 13 seasons with the Colts.

He made the Pro Bowl in eight consecutive seasons, scoring double-digit touchdowns in each of those years.

Jim Brown, RB - 126 Still known as arguably the greatest running back to ever play, Brown was incredibly productive in his nine NFL seasons.

He led the league in rushing in eight of those years and won his third MVP in his final year, scoring 21 times.

Adrian Peterson, RB - 126 Peterson was the top back in the NFL for a good part of his 15 seasons, leading the league in rushing three times including his 2,000 yard season in 2012.

He played for seven different teams, but the bulk of his career was in Minnesota.

Walter Payton , RB - 125 "Sweetness" had a remarkable NFL career, making nine Pro Bowls and winning the 1977 MVP.

He scored double-digit touchdowns seven times over 13 seasons.

Larry Fitzgerald, WR - 121 Fitzgerald had a long career of consistency in Arizona, playing 17 seasons in the desert.

He made 11 Pro Bowls and led the league in receiving touchdowns twice.

Antonio Gates, TE - 116 Gates used his college basketball skills to be a dominant force in the red zone for the Chargers over 16 seasons.

He caught double-digit touchdowns four times in 16 seasons and made eight Pro Bowls.

John Riggins , RB - 116 Riggins started his career with the Jets for five seasons, but most of his touchdown production came in Washington.

He tallied 62 of his 116 touchdowns in the final stretch of his career from 1981-1985, including 24 touchdowns in 1983.

Lenny Moore, RB/WR - 113 The versatile Moore was an offensive force for the Baltimore Colts from 1956-1967, making seven Pro Bowls.

The 1964 season was arguably his best, scoring 19 times.

Shaun Alexander , RB - 112 Alexander's career was relatively short, spanning only nine seasons with Seattle and Washington.

However, he was seemingly unstoppable at his peak, winning MVP in 2005 with 1,958 yards from scrimmage and 28 touchdowns.

Tony Gonzalez, TE - 111 Like Antonio Gates, Gonzalez used his college basketball skills to post up routinely in the end zone.

He had an incredibly consistent 17-year career with the Chiefs and Falcons, making 14 Pro Bowls.

Despite his total touchdown production, Gonzalez had double-digit touchdowns only three times.

Barry Sanders, RB - 109 Sanders retired after only 10 seasons, still in his prime, or he'd likely have far more touchdowns.

The Lions star led the league in touchdowns twice and rushing four times, including a 2,000 yard rushing MVP season in 1997.

Tim Brown, WR - 105 Brown had a very productive 17-year career, with nearly 15,000 total receiving yards and nine Pro Bowl appearances.

He finished his career in Tampa Bay after 16 seasons with the Raiders.

Don Hutson, WR - 103 Hutson played in an era of less passing and scoring from 1935-1945, so his production is even more remarkable.

He led the league in touchdowns in seven of his 11 seasons, and also led the league in receiving seven times.

Derrick Henry, RB - 104* Henry's touchdown tally continues to increase, but he's been one of the most feared running backs for most of his career.

He reached 2,000 yards rushing in 2020, also leading the league in rushing touchdowns.

Henry is well on his way to prolonging his streak of six straight seasons with double-digit touchdowns.

*-TD total as of Oct.

He led the league in receiving twice and had double-digit touchdowns four times.

Mike Evans, WR - 101* Evans' 6-foot-5 height has allowed him to be a great deep threat as well as in the red zone during his highly productive career.

He scored double-digit touchdowns five times in his first 10 seasons with the Bucs.

*-TD total as of Oct.

29, 2024.

Frank Gore, RB - 100 Overcoming a major knee injury in college, Gore proved to be extremely durable and productive during his 16-year NFL career.

Most of his production came in 10 seasons with the 49ers, including 13 touchdowns in 2009.

Franco Harris, RB - 100 Harris was a key piece of the Steelers dynasty during the 1970s, making the Pro Bowl in his first nine seasons.
