Mike Tomlin's Steelers issue a strong warning to entire NFL about Aaron Rodgers

Mike Tomlin and the Pittsburgh Steelers seem to have seen what they needed from Aaron Rodgers. During an interview with The Athletic, the team’s offensive coordinator Arthur Smith confirmed that the veteran quarterback has surprised him despite being 41 years old.

“Certainly, he’s not 25 years old anymore, but he’s in incredible condition. He’s throwing on the move and he’s making some throws on the run that are ‘wow’ type of throws that I don’t think many quarterbacks are making. I think it’s all still there. He’s certainly going to be able to escape the pocket and extend plays for us when he needs to. All of the movement passing game, it’s alive and well with him.”

So, in an unexpected turn of events, Smith is warning NFL teams that Rodgers’ mobility is still very much alive. A key component if the Steelers want to fight for the Super Bowl.

Who will be Steelers’ starting QB?

Aaron Rodgers will be the starting quarterback for the Pittsburgh Steelers. Since the start of the offseason, Mike Tomlin laid out a plan to convince him after Russell Wilson and Justin Fields left the team.

Mason Rudolph will be the backup, while for now, Skylar Thompson is No. 3 on the depth chart. This is because Will Howard got injured in training camp. However, when the rookie returns, that order could change again.
