Eric Dickerson 1,000-plus yards rushing in his first 3 seasons with the Colts in 1987, 1988, and 1989, but he was not a rookie as were Faulk, James, and Addai. Lydell Mitchell also had 3 consecutive 1,000-plus yard seasons in 1975, 1976, and 1977, but it was not his first 3 seasons in the NFL.
Jonathan Taylor is only 63 yards away from joining that select list, and he will have a chance to do so on Sunday against the Bills in northwestern New York State.
