Aaron Rodgers surpasses Peyton Manning on the all-time NFL regular-season passing touchdowns list during the Steelers’ 16-10 win over the Saints in Paris. Multiple outlets report that Rodgers throws a touchdown pass to move past Manning and reach 540 career regular-season touchdown passes, placing him in third position on the league’s overall list.
The coverage also highlights the broader context of the game itself and Rodgers’ connection to the moment. ESPN frames it as moving “alone” to third, while Yardbarker specifies the milestone occurring midway through the second quarter. Several outlets note the game is the NFL’s first regular-season contest in France, played at Stade De France.
Outlets differ mainly in what they emphasize beyond the stat. Times of India adds Rodgers’ stated plan to retire after the 2026 season and his reflections on family, international games, and former coach Mike McCarthy. NDTV adds a separate milestone claim that Rodgers becomes the first quarterback to play international games in three different countries. Yahoo Sports focuses on the “historic” passing of Manning, with some headlines using fan and performance language.
