Green Bay Packers quarterback Aaron Rodgers extended his team’s lead with a touchdown pass to receiver Davante Adams on a free play in the fourth quarter.
Rodgers hurried to the line and caught the New York Giants with 12 men on the field, and once he knew he had the free play, he found Adams in a crowd in the end zone for the 17-yard touchdown.
The improvised score gave the Packers a 24-13 lead with just over 14 minutes left.
The Giants were caught attempting to make a defensive substitution before the third-down play.
The Packers’ 75-yard drive was helped along by two defensive penalties. including one on third down, and Rodgers found Geronimo Allison under heavy pressure to convert a 4th-and-10.
Rodgers has now completed 17 of 27 passes for 217 yards and three touchdowns, including two to Adams.
The Packers intercepted Giants quarterback Daniel Jones on the ensuing drive. It hasn’t always been pretty, but Matt LaFleur’s team is closing in on a ninth win in 12 games.
