Aaron Rodgers replaced Brett Favre in Green Bay and now the Packers’ veteran quarterback has equaled his predecessor at quarterback.
The Green Bay great found Marquez Valdes-Scantling in the third quarter with a touchdown pass on Sunday against the Baltimore Ravens. The score and Mason Crosby PAT made it 28-17.
More importantly, from a historical perspective, the touchdown pass was the 442nd of Rodgers’ career.
That equaled the mark of TD passes Favre threw as a Packer.
Favre did it in 16 seasons. This is Rodgers’ 16th season with Green Bay but he sat behind No. 4 for a while, like three seasons.
MVS extends for the score! @packers take a 28-17 lead. #GoPackGo
