Aaron Rodgers' brother calls out the Steelers' biggest problem
Aaron Rodgers' brother shared his take on what the Pittsburgh Steelers' biggest problem is through four games this season.
The Pittsburgh Steelers experienced a 2-2 start marred by offensive mistakes, prompting criticism from an unexpected source: Aaron Rodgers' brother, Jordan Rodgers. On a recent episode of ESPN's Get Up, Jordan Rodgers pinpointed the team's offensive struggles to the wide receivers, excluding DK Metcalf, who have failed to make a significant impact.
"One of the main issues wasn't fixed from last year," Jordan Rodgers remarked. "There isn't a number two receiver that strikes fear into opponents. Consequently, they face more coverage than anyone in the NFL, relying on DK Metcalf to handle everything else." Despite the Steelers' efforts to address the wide receiver situation, including a trade for Michael Pittman Jr. and a draft pick for Germie Bernard, Pittman's foot injury has hampered his performance, and Bernard has been largely ineffective so far this season.
Aaron Rodgers' reluctance to involve rookies in critical situations may also contribute to the lack of impact from Bernard. The Pittsburgh Steelers may need to add another wide receiver to bolster their roster, but a series of wins could be necessary before they become trade deadline sellers rather than buyers.
