New York Jets quarterback Aaron Rodgers achieved a significant milestone on Sunday, joining an elite group of NFL players by surpassing 60,000 passing yards in regular-season games. He achieved this feat with a 7-yard pass to Tyler Conklin during the third quarter against the Minnesota Vikings at the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium. The accomplishment places Rodgers on a list that now numbers nine and includes Tom Brady, Drew Brees, Peyton Manning, and Brett Favre. Brady leads the pack with 89,214 yards. Brees was the quickest to make the list, doing so in 215 games. (This story was generated by Newser's AI chatbot. Source: the AP)
