Former Green Bay Packers quarterback-wide receiver tandem Aaron Rodgers and Davante Adams added to their legendary run as teammates in the NFL on Sunday.
During the third period of their road game against the Miami Dolphins at Hard Rock Stadium in Miami Gardens, Rodgers found Adams for a three-yard touchdown that put the New York Jets in front.

They pass Ben Roethlisberger and Antonio Brown for 4th most by any QB-WR duo in NFL history including playoffs.
Before they teamed up with the Jets gain, Rodgers and Adams played alongside each other from 2014 to 2021 with the Packers. Adams was traded by Green Bay in 2022 to the Las Vegas Raiders, who sent him to the Jets last 2024. Rodgers, on the other hand, was traded by the Packers to the Jets in 2023.
Despite the milestone that they hit, Rodgers and Adams failed to lift the Jets past the Dolphins, who came away with a 32-26 win in overtime. The Jets, who are no longer in contention for an NFL playoff spot, dropped to 3-10. They will next take on the Jacksonville Jaguars in Week 15 on the road at EverBank Stadium.
