Former NFL CB Thinks Steelers Would Contend For AFC North ‘Even Without Aaron Rodgers’

The AFC North has consistently been one of the NFL’s toughest divisions. The Pittsburgh Steelers and Baltimore Ravens are usually postseason contenders, with the Cincinnati Bengals often being competitive, too. While the Cleveland Browns drag the AFC North down slightly, it’s still home to three solid teams. This year shouldn’t be any different, with the Steelers adding notable players like Aaron Rodgers. However, former NFL corner Domonique Foxworth liked Pittsburgh’s chances in the AFC North, whether or not they had Rodgers.

“Even without Aaron Rodgers, I would’ve said they would contend,” Foxworth said Thursday on ESPN’s Get Up.
