Often, scout team is reserved for backups and practice squaders. A chance to get players at the end of the roster reps while providing the other side of the ball the best “look” for what they’ll see in the game. So, it must’ve been a strange sight to see QB Aaron Rodgers running the Pittsburgh Steelers’ offensive scout team throughout this week.
T.J. Watt confirmed Rodgers received scout team reps this week, as shared by CBS 58’s reporter Lance Allan.
“Aaron Rodgers was ‘taking some scout team reps this week. Anything he can do to help us win,'” Allan, a Milwaukee reporter, shared from Watt in a Friday tweet.
