Watch Aaron Rodgers throw an amazing TD pass while being yanked by his jersey
The Green Bay Packers’ passing offense struggled all last season with No. 1 receiver Jordy Nelson out with an ACL injury, but Nelson’s return Sunday against the Jacksonville Jaguars seems to have brought out the best in quarterback Aaron Rodgers.
After scoring Green Bay’s first touchdown of the season with his legs, the two-time NFL MVP hit Nelson on a 6-yard score for his first TD pass of the season.
But Rodgers saved his masterpiece for late in the first half, when – with the Jaguars pulling him to the ground by his jersey – he somehow hit Davante Adams in the end zone for a 29-yard score. And the play wasn’t all Rodgers. Adams, who struggled mightily while trying to fill in for Nelson last season, made the best catch of his three-year career on the other end of the play.
It appears to be a new day for Rodgers and the Packers’ offense.
