McCarthy: Rodgers Delay Benefits Steelers QBs

0:00On April 22nd, Pittsburgh Steelers head coach Mike McCarthy is straight up saying Aaron Rodgers holding off on a decision ain't all bad. The team still waiting on the vet quarterback so they're rolling with what they got, giving young guns like Will Howard and Mason Rudolph extra, snaps at the most crucial spot. That delay means no final word before the draft, and it could drag into May or even June. Meanwhile, Howard and Rudolph had been splitting all the first team reps through their early off-season workouts. McCarthy's cool with it, because those reps are gold for the guys building their games. He sees them improving day by day, which is exactly what the staff needs to evaluate. He trusts Rodgers to slide right in whenever he chooses, thanks to their history together. No need for every practice when you're that dialed in. Steelers are playing it smart, staying patient, while sharpening the whole quarterback room, heaving options wide open no matter what Rodgers decides.
