NEW ORLEANS - In a story Dec. 25, 2020, about Alvin Kamara of the New Orleans Saints tying a 91-year-old NFL record by rushing for six touchdowns in a 52-33 rout of the Minnesota Vikings, The Associated Press erroneously reported details about how Ernie Neversâ record set in 1929 was matched in 1965. Gale Sayers of the Chicago Bears had four rushing and one receiving touchdown and scored on a punt return against the San Francisco 49ers in 1965; he did not have four rushing and two receiving TDs.
