Aaron Rodgers failed to record his 500th touchdown pass in last week’s game against the Buffalo Bills, who have Josh Allen as their star player. In return, the New York Jets quarterback received a fine from the NFL for an action that was very different from a career recognition.
In the midst of the conflicting versions about his continuity with the Jets, Rodgers was penalized in the 14-40 loss to the Bills of quarterback Allen, who in contrast dazzled with an outstanding performance in which he completed 19 passes for 182 yards and two touchdowns.
The penalty for Rodgers comes in the context of a new Saturday in which the NFL publishes the list of players fined for unsportsmanlike or violent conduct, a habit that is repeated week after week by the league organization. In this case, the Jets star could not escape the rigorous criteria.
