The New York Jets moved to 3-2 with an impressive victory over the Miami Dolphins, 40-17. It was the Jets first win over an AFC East team in 13 tries.

Dolphins quarterback Tua Tagovailoa was out this week with a concussion, and backup Teddy Bridgewater on the first play from scrimmage suffered an elbow injury along with a potential concussion and was ruled out for the remainder of the game due to the NFL’s new protocols. Seventh-round pick Skylar Thompson took over in his stead.

Jets QB Wilson completed 14-of-21 passes for 210 yards, and all five New York touchdowns came via the ground. Rookie running back Breece Hall was the star of the show, as he rushed for 97 yards and one touchdown. He also shined in the passing game, as he caught two passes for a total of 100 yards. Defensively, Jets rookie cornerback Sauce Gardner stood out. He recorded his first career interception, and made the hit that knocked Bridgewater out of the game. 

Thompson completed 19-of-33 passes for 166 yards and one interception in his first NFL action aside from preseason play. Raheem Mostert was someone who kept the Dolphins’ offense afloat, as he rushed for 113 yards and one touchdown. Tyreek Hill caught seven passes for 47 yards.

Aaron Judge made history Tuesday, hitting his 62nd home run of the season in the Yankees’ 3-2 loss to the Rangers in Game 2 of a doubleheader to break Roger Maris’ American League and franchise record set in 1961.

The Yankees outfielder reached the landmark number against Jesus Tinoco of the Texas Rangers, leading off in the second-to-last regular season game on the season.

In the first game of Tuesday’s doubleheader, Judge went 1 for 5 as the designated hitter, singling and scoring the eighth inning. The frustrations of his homerless drought began to show as he was caught slamming his helmet in the dugout after a fifth inning pop-out.

He appeared to take out his frustrations early on the second game, sending a 1-1 pitch from Tinoco 391 feet into the left field bleachers  at 100.3 MPH for No. 62.

It’s the most homers hit in a season since Barry Bonds set his PED-tainted record of 73 home runs in 2001 with the Giants. Sammy Sosa, another slugger disgraced by his attachment to steroids, hit 64 that season with the Cubs. Sosa’s career-high of 66 came in 1998 during his chase with Mark McGwire, who finished with 70 home runs.

The New York Giants improved to 3-1 on Sunday with a ground-and-pound style 20-12 victory over the Chicago Bears (2-2).

The Giants saw both quarterbacks, Daniel Jones (ankle) and Tyrod Taylor (concussion), injured during the second half. That led to Saquon Barkley taking a few Wildcat snaps in the fourth quarter. Jones, obviously limited, played the final couple of series. He was limited to handing off or lining up as a wide receiver while Barkley played quarterback.

Leading 20-12, the Giants salted the game away when Gary Brightwell recovered a muffed punt by Velus Jones Jr. of the Bears at the Chicago 37-yard line with 2:01 to play. The Giants hung on despite Graham Gano missing a 37-yard field goal with :17 left.

The Giants ran for 262 yards. Saquon Barkley had 31 carries for 146 yards. That’s Barkley’s 14th career 100-yard rushing game. Jones had 6 carries for 68 yards, including touchdown runs of 21 and 8 yards. Jones passed for only 71 yards, completing 8 of 13.
