The Pittsburgh Steelers were reluctant to play their starters during all three preseason games. The only ones who did play were either rookies or young players still trying to make their mark in the league. Some of their key offensive players, including Aaron Rodgers and DK Metcalf, didn’t see any reps together during any of the three games.
The Steelers have earned some criticism for that. However, they remain confident in their decision, and Metcalf shares that confidence.
“Nah,” Metcalf said after practice on Wednesday, via Steelers.com. “That’s everybody else’s worry, not mine.”
With the Steelers’ offense being so young, a decent number of players got reps.
