Aaron Rodgers starred for the New York Jets in their dominant 24-3 home victory against the New England Patriots.<\/b><\/p>\n

The 40-year-old threw for two touchdowns in his first start at the Jets’ MetLife Stadium since he suffered a season-ending torn Achilles tendon on his debut one year ago.<\/p>\n

Rodgers, named the NFL’s Most Valuable Player four times during his long career with the Green Bay Packers, was given a warm reception in the Jets’ first home game of the season.<\/p>\n

“I felt pretty good. I was doing some things I did as a younger man,” Rodgers said.<\/p>\n

“I feel great to be able to play an entire game in front of our amazing fans.”<\/p>\n

In their opening two games of the new season the Jets lost at the San Francisco 49ers before winning at the Tennessee Titans.<\/p>\n

Rodgers, who made his return to action in the opening-weekend loss in San Francisco, completed 27 of 35 passes for 281 yards on Thursday.<\/p>\n

He had a stellar career with Green Bay, helping them win the Super Bowl in 2011, before a surprise trade was agreed with the Jets last year<\/a>.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
