FOXBOROUGH, Mass. — The New England Patriots (9-2) extended their AFC East dominance with a commanding 27-14 victory over the New York Jets (2-8) on “Thursday Night Football” at Gillette Stadium on Nov. 13, 2025. Rookie QB Drake Maye and RB TreVeyon Henderson fueled an eighth consecutive win, vaulting New England to the NFL’s top seed.
Maye, named player of the game, went 24-of-35 for 278 yards and three touchdowns with zero turnovers. He ignited the comeback from an early 0-7 hole with an 18-yard strike to Kayshon Boutte in the first quarter. “Drake’s playing like a true leader,” head coach Mike Vrabel said. “His reads and poise are elite.”
Henderson dominated on the ground, rushing for 112 yards and two scores, including a 22-yard touchdown to tie it at 7-7 in the second and the fourth-quarter clincher. The Patriots controlled the clock for 35 minutes and converted 8-of-14 third downs. Jets managed just 241 total yards, with Breece Hall (89 rushing yards, 1 TD) their lone bright spot.
New England’s defense overwhelmed: four sacks on Aaron Rodgers, two forced fumbles, and a Christian Gonzalez interception. Rodgers (20-of-32, 189 yards, 1 TD, 1 INT) was contained, especially as the Jets clawed from 17-7 to 17-14 on Hall’s third-quarter score. “We play as a unit,” Gonzalez said. “Turnovers keep the net clean.”
The Jets snapped a two-game win streak and remain mired under interim coach Jeff Ulbrich. Rodgers admitted: “The Patriots are superior in every phase.” It’s New England’s first win over the Jets since 2023, solidifying their AFC East lead over Buffalo (6-3).
Key Plays:
- Q1: Jets TD Hall (0-7); Maye TD Boutte (7-7)
