Rookie Will Howard is unequivocally a gainer when it comes to the arrival of Aaron Rodgers to the Pittsburgh Steelers. That’s something that happened to Jordan Love when A-Rod was still with the team.
The Green Bay Packers legend signed a one-year deal with the AFC North team and many thought that he could elevate the team which haven’t gone past the Wildcard rounds since 2018.
Rodgers’ main task is, of course, to steer the team to football glory but Howard, who Steelers selected 185th overall in the last draft is in for a great education under the 4-time MVP’s wings.
“I think the person that’s going to benefit the most from all this is Will Howard,” said team legend Roethlisberger in his own podcast.
“Because he gets to see how a Hall of Fame guy does it — for good, bad, and different. Whatever is going to happen.”
Howard is not expected to play a game this season as he is only a third option next to Mason Rudolph.
Aaron Rodgers can push DK Metcalf to another level
Howard will be on the sidelines to pick the mind of Rodgers. On the field, there is another player who will benefit big time from A-Rod and in a totally different way.
For Hall of Fame inductee Randy Moss, wide receiver is going to be phenomenal this year.
“To change the subject a little bit, I am going to tell you a guy that I think is going to have a phenomenal year,” Moss said during an appearance at the Mystic Zach YouTube channel.
“I am looking for a big year out of Pittsburgh. The reason why I look at a big year out of Pittsburgh is because of Aaron Rodgers. The last two seasons, he was hurt, last year coming off of an injury and all the naysayers were saying he was washed up.”
Metcalf was received by Steelers in a trade with the Seattle Seahawks. He signed a five-year, $150 million extension after that.
The two-time Pro Bowl has already built a solid career with the Seahawks. Will Moss proved prophetic? What level will he reach with Rodgers?
