Aaron Rodgers on Pittsburgh's Field: 'It Falls Short'

0:00For the NFL, it's March 8th. Here's what's happening. Make sure you're subscribed so you never miss an update. Aaron Rogers recently shared his thoughts on playing in Pittsburgh last season. He highlighted the great fan support and called Acresure Stadium a solid venue overall. But he took a clear jab at the field's playing surface, saying it falls short. Rogers emphasized that he is not alone in this view. Plenty of players share the same complaint about the turf at a crusher. He made the comment during a chat on the Pat McAfee show where it landed with some humor. McAfee burst out laughing at the remark and quickly agreed that it's a known issue. Rogers doubled down, insisting his take is spot on and widely felt across the league. Meanwhile, Steelers owner Art Rooney II addressed the concerns. The team plans to install new grass, the exact same type used by the bears and eagles. Officials believe it holds up well in Chicago and Philadelphia so it should perform fine in Pittsburgh too. This upgrade comes as a Steelers aim to improve home field conditions ahead of the new season.
