Rodgers questions preseason value ahead of Steelers-Packers clash
TL;DR
Pittsburgh Steelers quarterback Aaron Rodgers, 42, says there’s little point in playing in the preseason against his former team, calling it “not real football.” Steelers coach Mike McCarthy hasn’t ruled out reps for Rodgers, who suggests using the veteran to mentor the young QBs Will Howard and Drew Allar, while preseason action mainly serves as a showcase for players with pads on and nerves under the lights.
