Mike McCarthy and Aaron Rodgers Still Working on Preseason Plan

The Pittsburgh Steelers will open up their preseason schedule with a matchup against the Green Bay Packers at Acrisure Stadium.

The Pittsburgh Steelers are set to host the Green Bay Packers in an upcoming preseason game at Acrisure Stadium. Head coach Mike McCarthy and veteran quarterback Aaron Rodgers will face off against their former team, where they won a Super Bowl title in 2011. Rodgers, 42, has yet to miss a single training camp practice as he prepares for his 22nd NFL season.

However, McCarthy stated that they are still discussing whether or not Rodgers will play in Thursday night's game. McCarthy emphasized that Rodgers' presence adds a competitive edge to the team, as he sets the standard for practice sessions, including the 2-minute drill. The preseason matchup between the Packers and Steelers is scheduled to kick off at 7 p.m. ET.
