New Steelers QB Aaron Rodgers’ first pass of the team period didn’t go as planned — it was intercepted by two-time Pro Bowl LB Patrick Queen.
According to PennLive’s Nick Farabaugh, Rodgers attempted a pass to star WR DK Metcalf but was picked off by Queen — leading to a loud reaction from the defense and Steelers fans alike.
This speaks to the success of the re-tooled Steelers defense, as Rodgers doesn’t typically throw many interceptions — having topped 10 in a season just four times in his 20-year career. Still, it’s far from an ideal way to kick off training camp — and you know the defense is letting him hear it.
Here’s to hoping this isn’t a sign of things to come — and he’s simply feeling the first-camp jitters after making the historic walk down to practice at Saint Vincent College.
