The New York Jets are not just on the scoreboard; they’re actually leading at halftime. Two offensive touchdowns and a kick-return score have the home team on top of the Seattle Seahawks, 21-16, at halftime.
After a great first drive from the Jets’ offense, Aaron Rodgers found Davante Adams on a touchdown in the corner of the endzone.
The connection was a vintage throw from Rodgers, who looked the healthiest he has since Week 3 against the New England Patriots. Adams also looked vintage on the play, creating great separation off the snap and then snagging the touchdown.
After a fumble recovery on a kickoff, the Jets capped off their second scoring drive with a great shovel pass to rookie Isaiah Davis. It was his first career touchdown of his young NFL career.
Not to be outdone by the offense, Kene Nwangwu returned a kickoff to the house for the Jets. It was arguably the best return for the Jets since Xavier Gipson’s punt return touchdown against the Buffalo Bills in Week 1 of last season.
New York will look to build off the momentum of its halftime lead en route to a post-bye week victory.
