Aaron Rodgers, Pittsburgh Steelers quarterback, is being hailed as a game-changer by many team fans, as well as analysts. However, bringing an expert quarterback to the team is not the only thing that the Steelers need at this point in the offseason. The team also desperately needs another wide receiver, apart from DK Metcalf, which was smartly pointed out by retired NFL wide out Andrew Hawkins.
Hawkins recently stopped by ESPN’s NFL Live and shared his worries about the Pittsburgh Steelers, even if they do have Aaron Rodgers in their locker room right now. Apart from stating his doubts about the team’s wide-receiver situation, Hawkins also highlighted Rodgers’ deteriorating performance.
“I’m not super hopeful to be honest with you. That’s not a knock on the Steelers, that’s not a knock on Aaron Rodgers. I just haven’t seen Rodgers at his best in years. So now he goes to the Pittsburgh Steelers, and they have DK Metcalf on one side, but who’s the number two receiver? DK is about to go into a situation where he’s not used to not having someone on the other side to take that attention away.” Andrew Hawkins spoke about the Pittsburgh Steelers in his latest appearance on ESPN’s ‘NFL Live’.

Aaron Rodgers will be playing alongside wide receiver DK Metcalf in the upcoming NFL season. The Steelers did have George Pickens in their roster before but traded him to the Dallas Cowboys earlier in the offseason. This particular move was called out by many Steelers fans.

Munn faced a much bigger load of condemnation from NFL fans who blamed her for Rodgers’ on-field failures. A percentage of the haters also blamed Munn for splitting up Rodgers from his family. Rodgers did clarify this in his Netflix documentary a few years back and admitted that Munn had nothing to do with this.

Rodgers and his family, most particularly his siblings, had a falling out sometime ago, but the quarterback has no intentions of mending ties, it looks like. The quarterback also did not invite his own siblings to his recent marriage to Brittani.
