Aaron Rogers' 11+ yard average target depth hurts Steelers RBs' pass-catch upside.

Aaron Rogers suddenly shifted to chucking the ball downfield with an 11+ yard average target depth, the highest mark he's had with the Steelers. This is not great for both Steelers RBs (Jaylen Warren and Rico Jones), as the key thesis supporting their flex potential was the expectation that Rogers would check the ball down frequently.
