OAKLAND -- Ellis Hobbs has returned a kickoff for a touchdown each of the last three seasons, tying the franchise record for a career.

Raymond Clayborn had held the record, returning three KOs for TDs as a rookie in 1977.

Hobbs set an NFL record last year with a 108-yard runback against the Jets in the season opener. He had a 93-yarder against Houston in 2006, and a 95-yarder late in the second quarter today, which came immediately after Oakland's Justin Miller had a 91-yard TD return.
