Aaron Rodgers breaks long drought with first 300-yard day as Jets QB

MIAMI GARDENS, Fla. – Aaron Rodgers’ string of NFL starts without passing for at least 300 yards ended Sunday against the Miami Dolphins. 

Rodgers had 339 yards passing at the end of regulation before the Dolphins marched to an overtime touchdown for a 32-26 win over the New York Jets.

It had been 34 starts since Rodgers last hit the passing milestone.

He failed to eclipse 300 yards passing in his final 21 games with the Packers.
