VisitAaron Rodgers Reaches 503 Career Touchdowns as Jets Defeat Dolphins 32-20
Jan 5, 2025, 10:54 PM
Aaron Rodgers, quarterback for the New York Jets, achieved a significant milestone by throwing his 500th career touchdown pass during the team's game against the Miami Dolphins. The touchdown, a 5-yard pass to tight end Tyler Conklin, occurred in the second quarter, giving the Jets a 7-6 lead. Rodgers, who joined the Jets after spending 18 years with the Green Bay Packers, became the fifth quarterback in NFL history to reach 500 touchdown passes, joining Tom Brady, Drew Brees, Peyton Manning, and Brett Favre. Later in the game, Rodgers added three more touchdown passes to wide receivers Davante Adams and Allen Lazard, and running back Breece Hall, bringing his total to 503 for his career. The touchdown pass to Adams was the 83rd of their career together, moving them past Dan Marino and Mark Clayton for the third-most quarterback-wide receiver touchdown combinations in NFL history. The Jets, finishing the season with a 5-12 record, won the game 32-20, with Rodgers completing 23 of 36 passes for 274 yards and four touchdowns, despite an early interception. The Dolphins ended their season with an 8-9 record. This performance came amidst speculation about Rodgers' future, as he has not decided whether he will continue playing into a 21st season, and the Jets are set to undergo significant changes with new management and coaching staff.
