Aaron Rodgers isn’t going to make much of facing the Jets in public, but Brandin Echols has no problem doing so himself. Both players came over from the Jets to the Steelers this offseason, the latter as an unrestricted free agent. Although he didn’t experience the unceremonious exit Rodgers did, he’s still eager to play his former team on Sunday.
“I’ve been waiting on this game since they first dropped the schedule,” Echols told Chris Adamski of the Pittsburgh Tribune-Review. It’s not the first time he’s expressed that this offseason, but it’s different on the eve of the game.
