Steelers' Aaron Rodgers Surpasses Brett Favre for Fourth Place in NFL Touchdown Passes

Aaron Rodgers, the 41-year-old Pittsburgh Steelers quarterback, recently surpassed his former Green Bay Packers teammate Brett Favre to become fourth on the NFL’s all-time passing touchdowns list with 510 career touchdown passes. Rodgers achieved this milestone during a Week 3 victory over the New England Patriots, where he threw two touchdowns, including a record-breaking 12-yard pass to DK Metcalf. Despite being fourth all-time, Rodgers trails Peyton Manning by 29 touchdowns and could potentially surpass Manning if he maintains his current pace. Rodgers has demonstrated remarkable longevity and efficiency throughout his 21-year NFL career, throwing fewer interceptions than many peers while climbing the historic leaderboard. The Steelers' win was also marked by strong defensive play, forcing five turnovers against the Patriots. Rodgers downplayed the personal achievement, emphasizing his long career and respect for Favre, highlighting the competitive yet respectful nature of his milestone.
