With one 19-yard reception in the fourth quarter, second-year receiver Antonio Brown set a franchise record and went over 1,000 yards receiving Saturday for the first time in his career.

Brown became the franchise's single-season leader in all-purpose yards after reeling in a pass from quarterback Charlie Batch . Brown, who also serves as the punt returner and kickoff returner, has 2,048 all-purpose yards.

Brown has 1,018 yards receiving, 664 on kickoff returns, 325 on punt returns and 41 rushing. The record previously was held by Barry Foster , who compiled 2,034 yards in 1992.
