PITTSBURGH -- Aaron Rodgers isn't giving his former team any free bulletin board material this week.
Speaking at his weekly media availability Wednesday, the Pittsburgh Steelers quarterback deflected all questions about returning to MetLife Stadium to face the New York Jets in Sunday's season opener, downplaying the significance of the game.
Asked whether there was anything to the game because of the location and opponent or whether it was business as usual, Rodgers was brief.
"Yeah," he said, "it's Week 1."
Rodgers was similarly succinct when asked about what he expects of his emotions when he runs out of the tunnel at MetLife.
