To the frustration of many, the Pittsburgh Steelers’ wait on Aaron Rodgers has stretched well into May. However, the Steelers remain confident in their chances to sign Rodgers. If he does make it to practice this summer, Mike Florio thinks Rodgers will play well enough to help his new teammates understand why Pittsburgh waited so long for him to make a decision.
“I think back to 2009 when Brett Favre signed with the Vikings halfway through training camp,” Florio said, speaking with Suzy Shuster and Amy Trask on What The Football on Tuesday. “Brett Favre shows up and starts throwing darts all over the place, and the players understand… And I think the same thing’s gonna happen when Aaron Rodgers shows up, and the Steelers’ players see what he can do.
