Published Oct. 2, 2011 5:28 p.m. ET

Detroit Lions receiver Calvin Johnson has matched an NFL record by catching two touchdowns passes in his fourth consecutive game.

Johnson caught his second touchdown Sunday against Dallas with 1:39 left in the game to give the Lions their first lead.

The only other player to have four consecutive games with two TD passes was Cris Carter of the Minnesota Vikings in the middle of the 1995 season. Johnson is the first to have two receiving TD touchdowns in each of the first four games of a season.
