Even at 42 years old, the NFL isn’t ready to write Steelers QB Aaron Rodgers off.
On Tuesday, ESPN insider Jeremy Fowler reported the comments of an unnamed NFL offensive coach who had high praise for Pittsburgh’s veteran signal caller — believing Rodgers still has enough gas in the tank to be the best Steelers QB since Big Ben:
“He’s still throwing the s— out of the ball, honestly,” a veteran NFL offensive coach said. “He’s the best quarterback they’ve had since [Ben Roethlisberger]. We will see how the body holds up, but I think he’s going to help them immensely.”
Three-time Super Bowl champion Mark Schlereth took a similar stance on The Rich Eisen Show — claiming that a healthy Rodgers is “going to tear it up” with Pittsburgh.
Almost two years removed from his 2023 season-ending Achilles tear, Rodgers will look to put the injury concerns behind him as he gears up for a make-or-break Steelers season.
