Garrett Wilson reached for the sky and caught the Jets season with one hand and saved it from falling into eternal darkness.
Wilson saved Aaron Rodgers’ season.
It was third-and-19 at the Texans’ 26 when Rodgers lifted a rainbow that Wilson snared with his right hand and fell backward into Darryl Stingley in the back of the end zone. It was judged as incomplete. And then he fell over: his right shin landed within bounds.

A catch straight out of the Odell Beckham Jr. playbook.
Jets 14, Texans 10, on the way to 21-13.
It was Wilson’s second one-handed TD catch of the evening.
Wilson would play second fiddle to Davante Adams.
With that he said to hell.
Adams had been out of the game due to a concussion and Rodgers turned to Wilson.
When Adams returned, Rodgers found him with a perfect 37-yard TD pass and it was Jets 21, Texans 10.
Rodgers, after a first half in which the emotionally downcast boo birds sang“Sell the team!” at Woody Johnson, must have poured himself some cayenne pepper and water in the halftime locker room.
He used a balanced attack and Wilson’s first one-handed catch for the 21-yard TD, making it Jets 7, Texans 7.
You can’t just snap your fingers and go back to the future. You can miss an entire season and turn 40 and dream about what Tom Brady did and discover it was little more than The Impossible Dream.
So here was Aaron Rodgers, trapped in a body that would soon be 41, trapped in a franchise that can’t shake Kotite’s Law, formerly known as Murphy’s Law, desperately searching for demons he could only escape from. had heard.
Still desperately looking for MVP Aaron.
He can still give you a glimpse of MVP Aaron.
Especially on a night when Wilson can remind him of young Adams.
For Rodgers, it was his first three-TD game of the season.

Wilson allowed him to turn the jeers into cheers.
The Texans had taken a 7-0 lead on Joe Mixon’s 3-yard TD run at the end of a 98-yard drive that took up 8:23 of the second quarter.
It should have been 7-7.
Rodgers sprinted to the end zone on the opening play of the second quarter to congratulate rookie Malachi Corley as Corley took a throw straight to the house for a 19-yard touchdown.
This being the Jets, Corley casually dropped the ball a few inches before crossing the goal line.
From touchdown to touchback in the blink of an eye.

The boo birds must have been deafening for Rodgers after Denico Autry sacked him on third-and-10.
And again after Adams dropped a missile and then failed to march the Jets from NYJ 46 to FG range.
The future first-ballot Hall of Fame quarterback finished the half 7 of 14 for 32 yards.

This is how Rodgers, from the age of 11, had started the game:
A throw out of bounds on the right side for Adams.
A short throw over the middle was dropped by Breece Hall.
A bag from Autry.
That telepathy between Rodgers and Adams? His trusted receiver zigzagged and Rodgers expected him to make a sideline foul on the next series.
Then Garrett Wilson reached into the sky and everything changed.
