Aaron Rodgers made his New York Jets debut Saturday night against the crosstown Giants at MetLife Stadium, finishing his brief outing strong after a slow start.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Rodgers played two series, completing 5 of 8 passes for 47 yards and a gorgeous touchdown pass to Garrett Wilson to give the Jets a 7-0 lead. Wilson caught all three of his targets for 30 yards and the score, strengthening the pair’s already impressive cohesion in training camp.<\/p>\n

Jets fans have been waiting for the chance to see Rodgers in person since the moment the trade was announced — and given the pervasive offseason rumors, likely longer than that. Eventually, Rodgers gave them what they came for.<\/p>\n

After the Giants punted on their first possession, Rodgers came out to a big ovation. It was technically a road game, with the Giants hosting Rodgers in his new stadium, but plenty of Jets fans were on hand.<\/p>\n
