While it’s looking like Aaron Rodgers might start Sunday in Chicago, he very much appreciates what Mason Rudolph brings, on and off the field. With Rodgers battling a wrist injury, Rudolph finished last Sunday’s game, and has taken most of the reps in practice. Even if Rudolph doesn’t get the chance to start, he’ll have a big role along the way, according to Rodgers.
“He’s a great backup. He’s super helpful during the week. He’s a professional, he’s ready to play. He’s a gamer”, Rodgers said of Rudolph, via the Steelers’ website. This is their first year working together, but it strikes a similar note to Rudolph’s past teammates.
