Aaron Rodgers has been able to lead the Pittsburgh Steelers to a great start to their season. However, there were some questions that arose after the condition of Acrisure Stadium, as the field was ripped apart. The Steelers do share the stadium with the Pittsburgh Panthers.
The field has been torn apart as a resul,t and on Sunday against the Cleveland Browns, that was amplified as the field continued to get ripped apart. Aaron Rodgers commented on the status of the field, so let’s take a closer look at what the future Pro Football Hall of Famer said about the stadium.

Following Sunday’s 23-9 home win over the Cleveland Browns, Aaron Rodgers discussed how the field continued to worsen as the game went on. This is a result of the Pittsburgh Panthers playing there on Saturday and then this AFC North matchup being the next day.
“Thankfully [Boswell] took care of those kicks before the field got borderline unplayable. I just felt like it got real beat up. By the time the third quarter rolled around, that thing was really beat up, so I feel bad about what happened to Miles [Killebrew]. I’m not sure if, you know, there was any carry there. I know the field gets a lot of play.
“I don’t know why anybody wouldn’t wear a seven-studs cleats. Some guys are opposed to that and they just want to wear moldeds, but it reminds me a little bit of the field in Green Bay in the early years, but not until, like, November or early December where it would get kind of torn up a little bit. Then they went out and found an incredible, you know, field maintenance guy that would come over and help our guys out, and the field in Green Bay is absolutely immaculate, but the field today got pretty torn up.”
Much to Aaron Rodgers’ excitement, there were reports that the field was being replaced following the Week 6 game. The next game in Pittsburgh will be on October 26 against the Green Bay Packers.
