Pittsburgh – Aron roders This week, no free bulletin board is giving its former team.
Speaking on his weekly media availability on Wednesday Pittsburg steelers Quarterback faced all questions about returning to Metlife Stadium New York Jets In the Sunday season opener, reduce the importance of the game.
Asked whether the space and rival had anything for the game or whether it was the usual business, the Roders was brief.
“Yes,” he said, “This is the week 1.”
When he exits the tunnel in MetLife, Rhoders asked more briefly what he expects from his feelings.
“I would be excited for just week 1,” he said.
Rogers, of course, under the new coach Aaron Glenn by Jets, in March, in New York, after a two-year-old tenure in New York, which began with a season-ending Ekils injury in the 2023 opener, ended with 5–12 expeditions in 2024. The Rodgers eventually signed with steelers for a year, before $ 13.65 million. Meanwhile, Jets signed ontime Steelrs Quarterback Justin fields For two years, a $ 40 million deal in free agency.
For the Rodgers, joining the steeler is the second time in his career – and the second time in three sessions – he has started with a new organization after spending his first 18 years. green Bay PackersSo far, it has been a spontaneous infection.
“This is the second new, so it’s new new,” he said. “I am in love with here. The way I welcomed is really, in fact for fans from the top for people in the locker room and sports staff, men and women working for this organization are really special, actually special.”
Although Glenn brought with him a new defensive system to New York, Rhoders still have great familiarity with the players.
“I know some people,” he said. “Obviously Williams Brothers [Quincy and Quinnen] And sauce [Gardner] And ta [Tony Adams] And Jamian [Sherwood] And Michael Carter, Mitchell ClamensMy friend jermaine [Johnson] Returning from his Acilies. I do not want to forget anyone. On whom do we meet there? I mean young people, [Braiden] McGregor … Marcelino macakri-ballSo yes, I know people very well, but they are running a slightly different plan. ,
However, Rodgers, when asked if he was still in touch with him or someone else was asked by the organization.
“I am not going to tell you that,” he said.
The development of Roders for anything involving its old team was properly predicted by Steellers coach Mike Tomlin at its weekly news conference a day earlier.
“I am sure he is able to compile this,” Tomlin said about the return of Roders. “If it means anything more for him than a normal game, he probably will not tell you. We are going to play football.”
Rogers are not just about the importance of returning to the media. He is also reducing it for his new colleagues.
“He feels like this is just another game, and I think it’s good for us, just able to put it in our mind that it is another game,” tight end Pat freemuth Said. “Obviously we want to go out of there and win it for him, but I don’t think he is living in such a way that we are going back to his old Stamping Ground. I think he is ready to just go there and compete and play.”
wide receiver DK Metkaf Said that he can see the roders’ curiosity to bring it on the field, but it has nothing to do with the opponent.
“I mean I don’t think his former team has anything to do with it,” he said. “I think he just loves football game, and he is ready to go there and takes out a product on the field. I know it has a bad taste in his mouth since last years. He just wants to go out of there and win the game he can win.”
Like the Roders, Metcoff is also eager to go on the field in Metlife, not due to any personal history with the team, but because this will be the first time when the crime of the first team has taken a snap as a full unit in a game.
Tomlin, however, is not concerned about the lack of sports action.
Tomlin said on Tuesday, “I work them every day, and that daily work performs the stadium.” “Do I believe what they are capable of in the stadium? I am making it. None of us have seen our people in the stadium. And so I think it’s something that we manage this time all the year. … I think there are some speculation, and some do not know this time of this year.
“You can hide under your desk, or you can be confident. I choose to make my posture the basis of what I have seen from a prep, and I am really comfortable with what I have seen.”
Like his coach, Metcaf also reduced concerns about the ability of crime to start fast.
“No,” he said. “This is everyone’s concern, not mine.”
