EAST RUTHERFORD, N.J. -- New York Jets quarterback Aaron Rodgers passed Dan Marino for eighth place on the NFL's all-time passing yardage list with a 29-yard touchdown pass to Breece Hall on Sunday. It helped the Jets build a 13-7 lead over the Indianapolis Colts.
Rodgers began the day with 61,313 yards, needing only 49 yards to pass Marino

Hall scored his second touchdown on an 18-yard rush early in the third quarter. Hall took a toss to the right and followed lead blocks by guards John Simpson and Alijah Vera-Tucker, both of whom pulled. It was a nice misdirection play by the Jets, who sent wide receiver Davante Adams in motion to the left. Hall followed his blocks nicely and dived to the pylon to secure the six points.
It was Hall's first career game with a rushing touchdown and a receiving touchdown.
