22. (TIE) Steve Largent, Seattle Seahawks: 63 Points

The Seahawks’ all-time great receiver Steve Largent retired with exactly 100 touchdown receptions. He broke Don Hutson’s 44-year-old record (99) for most touchdown receptions in NFL history. Largent was one of the most dominant receivers of his era and his legacy will forever live on in Seahawks lore. Not only was he dominant, but he was consistent. In a nine-year stretch he posted 1000-yard receiving seasons an impressive eight times.

Twice he led the league in receiving yards, but he failed to ever lead the NFL in receptions or touchdown receptions. He was named First Team All-Pro once and was named to a Pro Bowl squad seven times. Three times he scored at least 10 touchdowns in a season. There simply cannot be an all-time receivers list without Largent’s name somewhere.
