Broncos Edge Jets 10-9 in Rain-Soaked Game

The Denver Broncos narrowly defeated the New York Jets 10-9 in a rain-soaked game at MetLife Stadium. Jets quarterback Aaron Rodgers, who has been dealing with a lingering Achilles injury, was sacked five times and took numerous hits, leading to concerns about his physical condition despite assurances from head coach Robert Saleh that it was just 'wear and tear.' Broncos rookie quarterback Bo Nix struggled significantly, completing only 12 of 25 passes for 60 yards but managed to throw his first NFL touchdown, which proved crucial. The Jets had a chance to win with a late field goal, but Greg Zuerlein's 50-yard attempt was wide right. Both teams were hampered by the difficult weather conditions, with Rodgers and Saleh emphasizing the need for better execution in future games.
