Tory is off to quite the start.
Seahawks' Tory Horton is 3rd player in NFL history to start his career with these stats originally appeared on The Sporting News
Tory Horton has started his NFL career in a very rare way.
The Seattle Seahawks is scoring a combination of touchdowns only done twice before in league history.
Horton caught his second receiving TD in as many weeks as part of the Seahawks' Sunday blowout of the New Orleans Saints.
That came after he had returned a punt 95 yards for a touchdown.
He's the third player to have multiple touchdown catches and a return touchdown through three career NFL games in the Super Bowl era, per OptaStats.

The other two: Percy Harvin in 2009 and Tim Brown in 1988.
Harvin eventually joined Seattle, but he started his career with the Vikings. Brown began his career with the Raiders.
Horton has been a revelation since the summer. He was a fifth-round pick out of Colorado State, and he quickly worked himself into a top-3 spot on the Seahawks' WR depth chart.
And now it's clear Sam Darnold trusts Horton in key spots on the field.
He's also clearly explosive given the way he brought the punt back to the house.
Seems like a gem that the Seahawks got in the late rounds.
