Facing third-and-10 with 1:53 remaining in a game his Jets trailed 10-9, 40-year-old quarterback Aaron Rodgers fired a back-shoulder throw up the left sideline toward Xavier Gipson, a 23-year-old who entered the NFL as an undrafted free agent. Coach Robert Saleh — citing 13 penalties for 90 yards, including five false starts — suggested the Jets might not be ready to handle Rodgers’ various cadences.
