Garrett Wilson delivered a standout performance for the New York Jets, catching two spectacular touchdown passes to help the team snap a five-game losing streak with a 21-13 comeback victory over the Houston Texans. Star quarterback Aaron Rodgers played a crucial role, completing 22 of 32 passes for 211 yards and throwing three touchdown passes marking the Jets’ first win since September.
This victory also marked the Jets’ first under interim coach Jeff Ulbrich elevating them to second place in the AFC East. Wilson’s highlight reel included two remarkable one-handed catches in the second half, showcasing his athleticism and skill. His first touchdown catch in the early third quarter tied the game while his second, a sensational leap to snag a 26-yard pass from Rodgers in the back of the end zone, drew particular attention.
Initially ruled an incomplete pass due to Garrett Wilson’s failure to get both feet down, the call was overturned after a video review confirmed the touchdown. The Jets had struggled in the first half, trailing 7-0 at halftime. Rodgers had a lackluster performance during the first two quarters, completing only seven of 14 passes for a career-low 32 yards.
Additionally, rookie receiver Malachi Corley had a touchdown nullified after video review showed he dropped the ball before crossing the goal line due to premature celebration. On the Texans’ side, Joe Mixon scored the team’s only touchdown but despite the loss, they remained atop the AFC South standings even with three defeats this season.
The Jets’ comeback not only lifted their spirits but also provided a much-needed boost as they look to build on this momentum in the weeks to come.
