Steelers’ Jaylen Warren is on fire, but sadly he’s not the media’s ‘favorite’ according to Aaron Rodgers

Pittsburgh Steelers running back Jaylen Warren has been dominating the league so far this season, amassing a total of 396 rushing and receiving yards in just five weeks. Despite his impressive production, Warren has remained largely off the media radar, according to his teammate and former NFL quarterback Aaron Rodgers. Rodgers acknowledged that there are "favorites" in the media, meaning that not everyone gets the attention they deserve.

The 34-22 victory against the Indianapolis Colts showcased Warren's skills, as he contributed both on the ground and in the air, recording a team-leading six receptions. Warren's lack of media coverage is surprising given his undervalued status and unconventional football journey. Undrafted in 2022, Warren played college football at Snow, Utah State, and Oklahoma State before joining the Steelers.

Rodgers, known for being one of the most popular players in the league, hopes that his remarks will generate the recognition Warren deserves.
