Rodgers famously preferred taking sacks over throwing the ball into harm's way, a conservative approach that contrasts with Love's willingness to put the ball up while maintaining elite accuracy.NegativeRoleAug 13, 2026

Rodgers expressed ambivalence about playing in the Steelers' preseason opener against his former team, the Packers. McCarthy stated on radio that Rodgers wants to play, but Rodgers told reporters "It's preseason. It's not real football. So if I do, great. If not, great." Rodgers elaborated that preseason football lacks the competitive intensity of regular season play—teams don't run their full schemes, joint practices have devolved into fights without real tactical value, and he sees limited benefit to his own participation. When directly asked if there's a benefit to him playing Thursday, Rodgers stated simply: "I don't think so." McCarthy indicated starters will play about two series before a second unit takes over, leaving uncertainty about whether Rodgers will be among the initial group.NegativeRoleAug 6, 2026
