Former NFC North division foes Los Angeles Rams QB Matthew Stafford and New York Jets QB Aaron Rodgers will face each other for the 18th time in their careers this Sunday at MetLife stadium. The two quarterbacks go way back, with Stafford and the Detroit Lions taking on Rodgers and his Green Bay Packers twice-a-year for 12 seasons. Rodgers and his current team have struggled in 2024, but historically the Jets QB has had Stafford’s number going 13-4 in their previous matchups.
Stafford spoke directly about Rodgers and the excitement to be playing meaningful football late into December:
“I’m just excited to go up there and play,” Stafford said.
