Aaron Rodgers Joins Exclusive 500-TD Club in Jets' Win Against Dolphins
What an incredible milestone for Aaron Rodgers! In a thrilling matchup between the New York Jets and Miami Dolphins, Rodgers delivered a historic performance that added another chapter to his legendary career. If Sunday's game against the Dolphins was indeed his last as a Jet, it will surely be remembered for a long time. Rodgers connected with tight end Tyler Conklin in the second quarter, throwing his 500th career touchdown pass, joining an exclusive club of only five players in NFL history to reach this feat.
The 5-yard touchdown throw not only gave the Jets a 7-6 lead but also marked a moment of greatness. Rodgers wasn't done, though. He went on to throw three more touchdowns, finishing with four on the day and bringing his career total to 503 touchdowns. With this, he now sits in fifth place in the all-time passing touchdown rankings, behind only Tom Brady, Drew Brees, Peyton Manning, and his former teammate Brett Favre.

What’s even more impressive is that Rodgers achieved this incredible feat in his 248th game, making him the second-fastest to reach 500 TD passes, only trailing Peyton Manning. His four-touchdown performance also secured his 28th touchdown of the season, bringing him to a remarkable 14 seasons of 25 or more touchdowns, tying Drew Brees for the third-most in NFL history.
Despite the Jets' disappointing season as a whole, which didn't meet the high expectations set before the start of the year, Rodgers' performance against the Dolphins was a reminder of his skill and resilience. As the 41-year-old quarterback reflects on this remarkable achievement, the future remains uncertain. Whether Rodgers will return to play next season or for the Jets again is still up in the air, but one thing is clear: his legacy in the NFL is firmly cemented. Even in the face of challenges, Rodgers continues to show the world just how spectacular his career has been, and the milestone he reached against Miami proves that he is still one of the greats.
Rodgers' 500th touchdown was a bittersweet moment in what has been a tough season for the Jets. However, it gave fans something to celebrate. His accomplishments solidify his place as one of the NFL's all-time greatest quarterbacks. And whether or not we see him take the field again, Sunday’s game will undoubtedly stand as a testament to his unparalleled skill and determination.
