‘Too Old:’ Asante Samuel Jr.’s Father Thinks Aaron Rodgers Is ‘Killing’ Steelers’ Chances

Aaron Rodgers had one of the worst games of his NFL career in Week 10 against the Los Angeles Chargers. The Pittsburgh Steelers’ offense was basically non-existent, with Rodgers making a ton of mistakes. While he only had two turnovers, he missed plenty of throws that he would normally make. Also, his pocket presence was off, having happy feet throughout the Steelers’ 25-10 loss. Former NFL corner Asante Samuel Sr., father of new Steelers cornerback Asante Samuel Jr., believes Rodgers is holding Pittsburgh back.

“I think Aaron Rodgers is too old,” Samuel said recently on his Say What Needs to be Said podcast.
