Story of the quarter

Aaron Rodgers‘ two interceptions defined the Jets’ struggles in the first quarter. The future Hall of Famer earned a low PFF grade of 28.2 over the first 15 minutes of play, with the two Vikings defenders who intercepted him securing the top and third-best grades of the quarter.

On the Vikings’ side, Christian Darrisaw had a flawless performance in pass protection, allowing zero pressures on nine pass-blocking snaps and earning positive marks as a run blocker. Meanwhile, Aaron Jones boosted his grade with an impressive acrobatic catch on the lone pass thrown by Nick Mullens, who briefly filled in for Sam Darnold as he momentarily left the field due to injury.
