Packers QB Aaron Rodgers throws third pick-six of NFL career

Packers QB Aaron Rodgers threw the third pick-six of his NFL career on Sunday against the Bucs.

Green Bay Packers quarterback Aaron Rodgers threw the third pick-six of his NFL career on Sunday against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers.

Amazingly, two of his three pick-sixes have come in Tampa Bay.

In the second quarter on Sunday, Buccaneers cornerback Jamel Dean jumped a pass from Rodgers to Davante Adams and returned the interception 32 yards for a touchdown.

Rodgers’ last pick-six came during a win over the Cincinnati Bengals at Lambeau Field on Sept. 24, 2017. His first was during a loss in Tampa Bay on Nov. 8, 2009.

The number of days between Rodgers’ first and second pick-six: 2,877. The number between his second and third: 1,120.

The interception was the Packers’ first turnover of the season. The score cut the Packers’ lead to 10-7. A drive later, Rodgers threw his second interception, setting up the Buccaneers’ go-ahead touchdown.
