Steelers' Aaron Rodgers Ties Brett Favre 508 Career Touchdowns

News summary

Pittsburgh Steelers quarterback Aaron Rodgers tied Brett Favre's all-time NFL record for career touchdown passes with 508 during a Week 2 game against the Seattle Seahawks, throwing a touchdown pass to wide receiver DK Metcalf. This milestone places Rodgers and Favre tied for fourth-most touchdown passes in NFL history, with Rodgers aiming to surpass Peyton Manning's third-place mark of 539 this season. Rodgers has shown strong performance and health early in the 2025 season, including a four-touchdown game in Week 1 against the New York Jets. The touchdown pass to Metcalf also marked Metcalf's first score as a Steeler and came after a key interception by Nick Herbig that set up the scoring opportunity. Rodgers, who began his career as Favre's successor in Green Bay, has hinted that the 2025 season might be his last, making his pursuit of Manning's record a challenging goal. Despite some struggles by the Steelers' offense and injuries on defense, Rodgers continues to demonstrate his elite quarterback skills and leadership on the field.
