This bar chart ranks the NFL players with the highest total touchdowns per game in regular-season games from 2012 to 2024, among players with at least 48 games in that span. Total touchdowns combine passing, rushing and receiving touchdowns, so quarterbacks lead the list.
Peyton Manning tops it at 2.43 touchdowns per game over his 58 games from 2012, followed by Josh Allen at 2.38, Patrick Mahomes at 2.32, Drew Brees at 2.31 and Joe Burrow at 2.20. Only games since 2012 are counted, so careers that began earlier are measured on their later seasons.
