AARON RODGERS AND the New York Jets shook off their offensive doldrums and rallied for a 21-13 victory over the Houston Texans on Thursday, halting their five-game NFL losing streak.
Rodgers connected on 22-of-32 passes for 211 yards and three touchdowns, including a stunning 26-yard go-ahead TD to Garrett Wilson, who leapt split-legged and reeled it in with one hand to put the Jets up 14-10 early in the fourth quarter. It was followed by Rodgers’s 37-yard scoring pass to Davante Adams that gave New York a 21-10 lead with less than three minutes remaining.Rodgers completed just seven of 14 passing attempts for 32 yards — a first-half career low for the four-time NFL Most Valuable Player.
Houston quarterback C.J. Stroud completed 11 of 30 passes for 191 yards, but with receivers Stefon Diggs and Nico Collins sidelined by injury it was running back Joe Mixon who scored the Texans’ lone TD, a three-yard run for a 7-0 lead with 3:21 left in the first quarter.
