New England Match Best Winning Streak From Tom Brady Years with Win Over New York Jets

Patriots rookie TreVeyon Henderson in action

Rookie Henderson has recorded five TDs in the present year

The New England Patriots tied their best victory streak from the Brady era as they overcame division opponents the Jets by 13 points in the NFL

First-year standout Henderson shone brightly with three TDs as the New England squad notched an eighth straight win for the initial occasion since iconic QB Brady's last year with the team in 2019

Signal-caller Drake Maye passed for 281 passing yards and a score, connecting on 25 passes from 34 throws

Victory extends the Patriots advantage at the summit of the AFC East as they advanced to a 9-2 record, with the New York at the foot after falling to two victories and eight defeats

The visitors had gone in front at Foxborough with QB Fields running in a short rushing score to conclude the New York's opening drive

But the Patriots responded in the second period as Henderson ran in two seven-yard TDs before the running back hauled in a throw from Drake Maye at the back of the end zone halfway into the third period to make it 21-7

"That was a key occasion for him stepping up, and it's been excellent for him to keep getting these reps," Maye said of Henderson. "He aims to be outstanding."

Justin Fields found Metchie in the latter part of the third quarter to reduce the lead for the visitors but Andy Borregales booted a pair of field goals in the fourth quarter as the home side wrapped up the triumph

Game Summary

  • Patriots continue winning streak to eight matches
  • First-year TreVeyon Henderson stars with three scores
