New York Jets quarterback Aaron Rodgers and punter Thomas Morstead displayed their recovery drink following the team's 21-13 win over the Houston Texans on Thursday Night Football.

Morstead posted a picture on X that featured Rodgers and a bottle containing a mixture of cayenne pepper and water, paying homage to Space Jam with a "Morstead's Secret Stuff" label.

Rodgers revealed to reporters on Tuesday that the punter introduced him to the drink in order to help healing from injuries sustained throughout the season, calling it the "fountain of youth."

"T-Mo gave me a little fountain of youth he said he's been taking for a while," Rodgers said, per Dennis Waszak Jr. of the Associated Press. "All legal, of course. ... He's been taking like cayenne pepper and water, so he gave me some before the game."

The concoction appeared to work against Houston, as both players were key contributors in the victory.

Rodgers finished 22-of-32 for 211 yards and three touchdowns without turning the ball over. All three of his scores occurred in the second half, which included a 37-yard touchdown pass to Davante Adams that gave New York a late two-possession lead.

Morstead also provided a boost to the Jets on special teams, punting five times for 274 yards and pinning the Texans inside their own 20-yard line twice. He also recorded a 75-yard punt in the first half.

The Jets were able to snap a five-game losing streak by defeating Houston on Thursday, with Morstead and Rodgers making sure to credit their unique recovery drink after the victory.
