Aaron Rodgers knew the Titans were in Cover 0.
The New York Jets quarterback knew that Tennessee’s line-of-scrimmage swarming eliminated concern about a deep safety on this third-and-1 play, his attention instead redirecting to star cornerback L’Jarius Sneed’s tight coverage on receiver Garrett Wilson.
Rodgers watched as his No. 1 receiver cut outside and looked back expectantly. Rodgers watched as Wilson then cut inside with eyes still firmly searching for the ball. Rodgers unfurled a 26-yard, back-shoulder throw with an ease that such feats should not dictate.
Wilson caught it.
