Caden Clay posted a new career-high in rushing yards on Friday. He rushed for 105 yards on only eight carries, and also threw for 133 yards and a touchdown while completing 84.6% of his passes.

This year, Clay has thrown 3 touchdowns while averaging 124.5 passing yards per game. That doesn't tell the whole story though: at this point last year, he was only averaging 52.63 passer rating per game. This year he is averaging 81 passer rating.
