New York Jets fans had high expectations for quarterback Aaron Rodgers a year ago. Then his season ended in four plays due to an Achilles injury, putting all of their plans on hold.
His debut in front of the home fans at MetLife Stadium in 2024 is off to a much better start.
Rodgers threw his first touchdown pass in front of the home fans — and his fourth touchdown of the season — on Thursday night against the New England Patriots, capping off an eight-play, 73-yard drive to give them a 7-0 lead.
The touchdown was a 10-yard pass to his former long-time Green Bay teammate, Allan Lazard.
