Jaylen Samuels Feature on NFL Films: Turning Point

Former NC State H-Back Jaylen Samuels carried the Steelers on his back this past Sunday in a 17-10 Pittsburgh victory over the Patriots.

His 142 yards on 19 carries were career highs in the NFL. Career highs in college. Career highs in high school.

It was truly a career day.

The 142 rushing yards were the most ever by a former NC State player as a running back in the NFL.

NFL Films did a phenomenal video on Jay Sam in their regular feature Turning Point.

Never had 19 carries in a game. Not even 100 rushing yards. Not in the NFL, college or high school.

But rookie RB @JaySam1k stepped up and carried the @Steelers to a huge win over the Patriots. #NFLTurningPoint (via @NFLFilms) pic.twitter.com/NPJKUUz6up
