A Miami Dolphins defender had a lot to say about Pittsburgh Steelers QB Aaron Rodgers.
During a chat shared on the Film Watchers' YouTube channel, Miami Dolphins linebacker Jordyn Brooks didn't hold back while talking about Pittsburgh Steelers QB Aaron Rodgers.
Many people believe Rodgers, 42, is washed. However, Brooks still fears the future Hall of Famer.
"He's playing chess," Brooks said about Rodgers, per Troy Montgomery of Steelers Depot. "You really just want to play him honest...At this point in his career, he's probably not going to take it off the top like he used to. But his superpower is his knowledge of the game, so he's still effective in that way. Really gotta be on your toes."
Rodgers put up 3,322 passing yards, 24 passing touchdowns and seven interceptions last season. The future Hall of Famer completed 65.7% of his passes.
The Steelers won the AFC North in 2025, but they lost to the Houston Texans in the wild-card round of the playoffs.
Pittsburgh helped Rodgers this offseason by acquiring Michael Pittman Jr. from the Indianapolis Colts. Rodgers will target Pittman Jr., Robert Tonyan, D.K. Metcalf, Darnell Washington, Pat Freiermuth and Roman Wilson next season.
"When you're facing a guy like him," Brooks said about Rodgers, "you really don't want to listen [at the line of scrimmage] because he's super experienced, super smart. He plays a lot of games. He might say something to throw you off, or he might do something to throw you off. You don't want to get too tied in on what he's talking about because he's playing the game within the game."
Rodgers has been in the NFL since 2005. He has played for the Green Bay Packers, New York Jets and Steelers and has 527 career passing touchdowns and 66,274 career passing yards in the regular season.
Rodgers hasn't won a playoff game since the 2020 season, while the Steelers haven't won a postseason game since the 2016 season. It will be intriguing to see how Rodgers and Co. perform in 2026.
A four-time MVP, Rodgers will retire from the NFL after next season. Will he go out on top or lose to Father Time?
Only time will tell.
