Aaron Rodgers reached another milestone in his stellar career on Sunday by becoming just the ninth player in NFL history to throw for 60,000 yards in regular-season games. The 40-year-old New York Jets quarterback crossed the threshold when he connected with Tyler Conklin on a 7-yard completion in the third quarter against the Minnesota Vikings at Tottenham Hotspur Stadium.
The four-time NFL MVP joins a list that is led by Tom Brady and includes Drew Brees, Peyton Manning and Brett Favre — whom Rodgers backed up for three years in Green Bay. After Favre , the list continues with Ben Roethlisberger, Philip Rivers, Matt Ryan and Dan Marino. Ryan was the eighth player to join the list and the second fastest . Brees was the quickest, reaching the mark in 215 games. Rodgers entered Sunday's game needing 96 passing yards to hit 60,000.
