Down by six points with three minutes left, the Jets had the Vikings right where they wanted them. Rodgers had the ball and two timeouts, but Rodgers did not deliver.
Instead, Rodgers threw an interception to Vikings cornerback Stephon Gilmore with 44 seconds left in the game, ending the hope of a comeback at Tottenham Stadium. Instead, the Jets lost 23-17 to Minnesota and fell to 2-3 this season.
Rodgers and the Jets got the ball with 3:07 left at their own 30. Rodgers hit Garrett Wilson for 16 yards and then Allen Lazard for two quick completions. Rodgers, who was moving slowly after injuring his knee in the third quarter, then marched the Jets to the end zone. He completed a third-and-10 throw to Williams for 18 yards to get the Jets inside the 10.
The Jets got off to an awful start, continuing the poor play that plagued them in last week’s loss to the Broncos.Rodgers threw two interceptions in the first quarter, something he had never done before in his career. One of them was a pick-six that gave the Vikings an early lead. The offense struggled to get anything going and it looked like the Vikings could blow them out, but the Jets stabilized things at the end of the first half. On defense, the biggest problem for the Jets was penalties.
On their next series, Rodgers sailed a third down pass intended for Allen Lazard and Vikings safety Camryn Bynum picked it off. The Vikings had some success running the ball early but lost star back Aaron Jones to a hip injury. The Jets had a scary moment in the third quarter when Rodgers was hit by Jihad Ward on third down and twisted his left knee on some other players on the ground as he went down. Rodgers got up slow and limped off. Rodgers had already been dealing with knee soreness from the beating he took from the Broncos last week. He was heading to the blue medical tent when a roughing the kicker penalty on the Vikings gave the Jets a new set of downs.
