The New York Jets' trip to London didn't go as planned. The team lost to the Minnesota Vikings 23-17, and to make things worse, quarterback Aaron Rodgers said he's 'definitely banged up' coming out of a game in which the offense suffered with Brian Flores' pressure packages.

This is the play in which Rodgers got hurt:
The loss in the United Kingdom made the Jets fall to 2-3 in the regular season. Despite those negative factors, the quarterback said he still trusts the roster.
"If we stick together," Rodgers stressed, "I still have a lot of confidence in this team."
Next week, the Jets have a big challenge — and one that could be telling about their season. On Monday night, the team has an AFC East divisional matchup against the Buffalo Bills.
