Rodgers had thrown for just 32 yards in the first quarter, the lowest total of his career with at least 10 attempts, as Jets rookie Malachi Corley blew a golden opportunity to open the scoring. Wilson’s first one-handed touchdown catch levelled the score in the third quarter, Ka’imi Fairbairn’s 54-yard field goal putting the Texans back in front. Rodgers found Davante Adams with just under three minutes remaining and although Fairbairn – who missed two earlier field goals – cut the gap to 21-13 with 39 seconds left, the Jets recovered the onside kick to end their losing run.
