Bradshaw: Steelers’ pastime in Rodgers ‘a shaggy dog story’

Terry Bradshaw is not partial to the Pittsburgh Steelers‘ extended pursuit of Aaron Rodgers.

The four-time Super Bowl-winning Steelers quarterback did not hang again in his review of the apparently endless flirtation between Rodgers and Bradshaw’s former staff. In a radio interview with 103.7 The Buzz in Arkansas on Tuesday, Bradshaw lambasted the Steelers for his or her pastime in signing the 41-year-old.

“That’s a joke. That to me is just a joke,” Bradshaw mentioned. “What are you going to do? Bring him in for one year, are you kidding me? That guy needs to stay in California. Go somewhere and chew on bark and whisper to the gods out there.”

The Hall of Fame quarterback wasn’t simply crucial of the Steelers’ dealing with of Rodgers’ state of affairs. He also known as the group a “failure” for the way it controlled now-Cleveland Browns quarterback Kenny Pickett. The Steelers drafted Pickett at No. 20 in 2022, however the staff in the end dealt him to the Philadelphia Eagles ahead of the 2024 season.

“I liked Kenny Pickett,” Bradshaw mentioned. “I liked him at Pitt. I know him, I know what he’s like. When they got him to Pittsburgh, they didn’t protect him, they didn’t get him an offensive line. They wanted to run the football, but they didn’t have an offensive line that could protect and they didn’t have weapons. He had no wide receivers to speak of.

“Then they throw a child in there for 2 years, and you have an offense that does not have compatibility and does not paintings, and they may be able to’t run as a result of their offensive line’s no longer even excellent sufficient for a run-blocking staff. Now, they are announcing Kenny Pickett is a failure. He wasn’t a failure, the Steelers had been a failure.”
