Question

Saturday’s game between the Titans and Ravens will feature five Heisman winners – Derrick Henry, Marcus Mariota, Robert Griffin III, Mark Ingram and Lamar Jackson. What was the only other game in NFL history with five Heisman winners? In said game, played in 1990, one of the five didn’t get on the field but all of the other four scored touchdowns.

Answer

In 1990, the Raiders won a December game at Detroit. Barry Sanders ran for 2 TDs for the Lions. They had used their first-round pick that year on Andre Ware, but he started only one game that year and appeared in only three others – not the Raiders game. Los Angeles (this was before the move back to Oakland) got touchdown runs out of Marcus Allen and Bo Jackson, and Tim Brown caught a 3-yard scoring pass.
