The Rams have won five of their last six games and maintained their spot atop the NFC West standings with the victory.
Los Angeles Rams tight end Tyler Higbee celebrates after scoring against the New York Jets during the second half of an NFL football game in East Rutherford, N.J., Sunday, Dec. 22, 2024. EAST RUTHERFORD, N.J. — Matthew Stafford threw a go-ahead 11-yard touchdown pass to Tyler Higbee early in the fourth quarter after a turnover by Aaron Rodgers and the Rams beat the New York Jets 19-9 on Sunday for their fourth consecutive victory.
With the game tied at 9 early in the fourth quarter, Kam Curl sacked Rodgers on a blitz and forced a fumble that Jared Verse recovered at the Jets 21. The Jets couldn’t muster a comeback attempt. Anders Carlson’s 48-yard attempt with 1:57 remaining was wide right. New York had another chance to get the ball, but Jordan Whittington recovered Xavier Gipson’s muffed punt return to seal the win for the Rams.
After Jacob Hummel downed Ethan Evans’ punt on the Rams’ opening drive at the Jets 1, Rodgers and New York’s offense got rolling quickly. Tony Adams intercepted Stafford on the Rams’ next drive, ending the Rams quarterback’s career-best streak of five games without a turnover. But the Jets turned the ball over on downs when interim coach Jeff Ulbrich opted to go for it on fourth-and-1 but Breece Hall was stopped for no gain, giving Los Angeles the ball at New York’s 33.
