Taylor Rooks was on the sidelines at MetLife Stadium on Thursday night, covering the Week 3 matchup between the New England Patriots and the New York Jets for Prime Video’s Thursday Night Football. While the Patriots have long dominated this historic rivalry, the Jets flipped the script in this showdown, looking the stronger team under head coach Robert Saleh. The difference-maker? Aaron Rodgers, who was nothing short of spectacular.
The four-time MVP, now leading the Jets, showcased his vintage form, completing 27 of 35 passes for 281 yards and two touchdowns without throwing a single interception. Rodgers, who has been gradually finding his rhythm with the Jets, spoke to reporters after the game about how good it felt to be back at the top of his game.
“It felt great,” Rodgers shared. “I was feeling real good out there. I felt good in pregame. I told you guys after Week 1 that it’s going to be a process, and I’ll continue to extend plays once I feel more comfortable. This was kind of a first step in playing like I know I’m capable of playing. I felt like I was, you know, myself.”
Though Rodgers’ performance stole the show on the field, it was Taylor Rooks who had fans buzzing before the game. Known for her sharp sports analysis and stunning sideline presence, Rooks turned heads in a stylish mint green skirt, a look she shared with her Instagram followers after the game. Rooks’ chic game-day ensemble quickly became a hot topic among her fans and social media followers.
