Aaron Rodgers' TD throw has Steelers within 16-10 of Bucs

Aaron Rodgers extended his career touchdown total to 538 with a clutch fourth-quarter strike, moving him one pass away from tying Peyton Manning for third all-time. The Green Bay quarterback connected with tight end Darnell Washington on a 5-yard touchdown, capping an eight-play, 68-yard drive that cut the Tampa Bay Buccaneers' lead to 16-10.

The Steelers' momentum was fueled by Rodgers' precision, including a 17-yard throw to DK Metcalf on third-and-16, and a late roughing-the-passer penalty on Calijah Kancey that preserved the drive. Through three quarters, Rodgers has completed 19 of 30 passes for 146 yards, adding both a touchdown and an interception to his stat line.
