Brett Favre (508). Rodgers also joins Manning (244 games) as the only players to reach 500 RS TDPs in fewer than 250 career games.

■ Garrett Wilson needs 3 catches to become the 2nd Jet ever to record more than 100 catches in a season. Brandon Marshall (109-1,502-14 TDs in 2015) is the only other Jet with 100 catches. With 81 receiving yards, Wilson will have 1,104 yards, which would be a career high and surpass his 1,103 yards as a rookie in 1922.

■ Rodgers’ Davante Adams for another TD pass against MIA would give the dynamic duo 83 TD connections, RS and PO combined, tied for third on the all-time list with Dan Marino and Mark Clayton, also with 83 the NFL break.
