Jets vs. Vikings NFL London Game scores, live updates: New York, Minnesota travel to the UK for the second international game this season

Must read

Surprise NFL MVP candidate Sam Darnold leads the unbeaten Minnesota Vikings into London to take on the New York Jets and Aaron Rodgers for the second international game this year. Minnesota has been a bit of a surprise this season with their journeyman signal caller leading the NFL in touchdown passes and passer rating heading into Week 4. It’s certainly unexpected from the 2018 first-round draft pick who’d been cast off by these same Jets after the 2020 season and early career struggles.

The Jets were hoping to have some stability at quarterback, at least for the next couple of years, when Aaron Rodgers got to the Big Apple before last season, but the Achilles tear that kept him out of all but four plays in 2023, and a middling start to this season — Rodgers is in the middle of the pack in touchdowns, yards and passer rating for the 2-2 Jets — may be cause for some early concern. That could turn around with a win over Minnesota to get Gang Green over .500 in the first of three straight weeks that the NFL will be in London.

  • Jets recover fumble, take advantage of mistake after Darnold’s exit

  • Sam Darnold takes a breather after hard hit

    Sam Darnold took a hard hit and was down in pain on the turf. He walked off under his own power, but backup Nick Mullens came in for a few snaps.

  • The Rodgers-Wilson connection is still a work in progress

    The chemistry between QB Aaron Rodgers and WR Garrett Wilson isn’t quite there yet. Wilson just had a dart from Rodgers fly right through his hands on third down.

    Rodgers is apparently trying to get Wilson more involved, but he may not be able to do that for much longer, especially if the Vikings score again.

  • Jets get big sack on Sam Darnold

    The Vikings could have had a touchdown on this drive, but a Jets sack at just the right time forced Minnesota to settle for a field goal.

  • Sam Darnold looking good in the first quarter

  • Minnesota gets the ball for the first time

    Jets punt after a three-and-out. They’re one of six teams in the NFL without points on any opening drive this season.

  • We’re underway in London!

    The anthems have been sung, SKOL has been chanted, and we’re underway in London!

    Aaron Rodgers and the Jets will start at the 25 yard line.
