Jets' Aaron Rodgers, Davante Adams get in sync

It was like something out of 2020 or 2021, with Aaron Rodgers slinging the ball, Davante Adams catching it and the two old friends razzing each other throughout a New York Jets victory that they will talk about long after their playing careers are over.

The quarterback-wide receiver tandem sparked the Jets to a 32-25 victory over the Jacksonville Jaguars on Sunday at EverBank Stadium, with Adams catching nine passes for 198 yards and two touchdowns -- all in the second half.

Adams had 135 yards in the last four minutes of regulation, the most by any player in a game this century.

"You get in a groove sometimes, and it's like your hand is a magnet to the ball," said Adams, who scored the 100th and 101st receiving touchdowns of his career.

Adams' second half was one for the ages -- the most prolific half for a Jets player since the 1970 merger. The only player in the past 45 years with more second-half yards after getting blanked in the first half was Irving Fryar, who had 211 for the New England Patriots in 1994.

And to think, the day began with a thud.
