Aaron Rodgers surpassed 60,000 career passing yards in the New York Jets’ Week 4 game against the Denver Broncos on Sunday at MetLife Stadium.
Rodgers, who's been the NFL's active leader in passing yards since all-time record-holder Tom Brady (89,214) retired after the 2022 season, remains ninth all time in yardage but has reached rarefied air.
He's now part of the 60K club, which includes charter member Dan Marino (61,361), Matt Ryan (62,792), Philip Rivers (63,440), Ben Roethlisberger (64,088), Brett Favre (71,838), Peyton Manning (71,940), Drew Brees (80,358) and the aforementioned Brady.
Four snaps into his first season with the Jets, Rodgers was lost to an Achilles tear.
Five games into his second season with Gang Green, Rodgers is making history with his new squad.
