Best Answer

Adrian Peterson holds the record for most rushing yards in a game, 296, while playing as a rookie for the Minnesota Vikings against the San Diego Chargers on November 4, 2007. Peterson scored 3 touchdowns. Even more amazing is that 253 of those yards were in just the second half of the game, which the Vikings won 35-17.
