It was a first but also a blast from the past.

Jets quarterback Aaron Rodgers is on the board with a touchdown pass at MetLife Stadium as a member of the home team.

It was a long time coming for the QB after his 2023 injury woes.

On the play, he once again connected with his former Green Bay Packers teammate, Allen Lazard. In his own right, the receiver is up to three touchdowns on the year.

The play was in the red zone, a quick pass to Lazard on the left. A quick move by the receiver is all that was needed.

Check out the score that put the Jets up 7-0 in the first quarter below:
