Training camp is underway in the NFL, and for the Pittsburgh Steelers, everyone is excited to see how Aaron Rodgers fits in. But one of the things Rodgers is most looking forward to is who the first training camp fight will be between.
Although never encouraged, fights at training camps is a pretty common occurrence in the NFL. Coaches would never tell their players to cause one, but often times it can also show a sign of competitiveness and edge that is needed in such a physical sport.
Speaking on The Pat McAfee Show on Wednesday, Rodgers revealed that he is still waiting for the first fight to break out. He also relayed the hilarious message that coach Mike Tomlin gave to the team on the matter.
“He’d definitely not promoting fights,” the veteran QB clarified, before adding, “That’s one of the rules: No fighting, but if something starts, whip his ass.”
If a fight does occur, typically it happens up fronth between the offensive and defensive line, where all the shoving happens. That’s why Rodgers has a couple of offensive linemen in mind for his prediction on who will be involved in Pittsburgh first scuffle.
