Rodgers had two interceptions in the first half – one to safety Kirby Joseph and the other to rookie Aidan Hutchinson. He would throw a second one to Joseph in the second half, adding to the woes the offense faced during the game.
The two-time reigning MVP was 23-for-43 with 291 passing yards and a touchdown pass to Allen Lazard. The wide receiver finished with four catches for 87 yards and a touchdown. The score came in the third quarter and cut the deficit to two points after a missed two-point attempt.
