Aaron Rodgers completed three of his five passes for 23 yards on his first drive in his preseason debut with the New York Jets against the Giants on Saturday night.
Wearing his white No. 8 Jets jersey for the first time in a game, Rodgers jogged onto the field to a nice ovation from the “road” fans at MetLife Stadium in the annual exhibition between the teams that share the stadium as their home.
Rodgers completed a 14-yard pass to Tyler Conklin on the Jets' second play from scrimmage, but a blindside block by Randall Cobb put the ball back at the 38. Jets coach Robert Saleh announced earlier in the week Rodgers would likely play a few series in the team's final tuneup for their regular-season opener against Buffalo on Sept. 11.
“I used to enjoy playing in the preseason back in my younger years,” the 39-year-old Rodgers said Tuesday. “Just to kind of maybe take that first hit or feel the nerves on the first drive, so I look forward to being out there.”
