He was full participant at practice at start of week. Rodgers had NFL-record streak of 402 passes without interception snapped vs. Bears. His 103.1 career passer rating ranks first in league history. … RB Aaron Jones (knee) placed on injured reserve this week after rushing for 728 yards and eight TDs in 12 games, including eight starts. Jamaal Williams will reclaim starting job. He had 97 yards from scrimmage (55 rushing, 42 receiving) vs. Bears. … WR Davante Adams had eight catches against Chicago and is tied for fourth in NFL with 100 receptions — fourth-best total in franchise history behind Robert Brooks (102 in 1995) and Sterling Sharpe (108 in ’92 and 112 in ’93). Adams ranks fourth in league with 1,315 yards receiving. … LB Clay Matthews looks for third straight game with sack. … Defensive coordinator Mike Pettine served in same role with Jets under Rex Ryan from 2009-12. … LB Blake Martinez third in NFL with 122 tackles. … CB Jaire Alexander one of three rookie CBs with 60 or more tackles (60). … Jets rookie QB Sam Darnold had best overall game in NFL last week, going 24 of 38 for 253 yards and two TDs with no INTs while leading New York to late fourth-quarter advantage. Darnold ranks second among rookies to Cleveland’s Baker Mayfield in both yards passing (2,357) and TD passes (14). Darnold’s 15 INTs are tied with Pittsburgh’s Ben Roethlisberger for most in NFL. … WR Robby Anderson has developed chemistry with Darnold lately.

Against Buffalo in previous week, Anderson had four catches for 76 yards and TD on seven targets. … Chris Herndon ranks first among rookie TEs with 32 catches. … RT Brandon Shell placed on IR with knee injury.
