Aaron Rodgers Slams NFL's Greed-Driven Thursday Night Games Amid Steelers Injury Woes

Aaron Rogers BioSnap a weekly updated Biography.

Aaron Rodgers is making headlines in his first season with the Pittsburgh Steelers, and the forty-one-year-old quarterback isn't holding back his opinions. According to Sports Illustrated, Rodgers recently called out the NFL's scheduling practices ahead of the Steelers' Week 7 matchup against the Cincinnati Bengals, which comes just four days after their previous game against Cleveland. The veteran signal-caller didn't mince words, stating that Thursday night games are all about the league making money, referencing Amazon's involvement and the expansion of primetime games beyond the traditional Thanksgiving slots.

Rodgers pointed out what everyone already knows but rarely says out loud, that the NFL's financial interests are driving these compressed schedules, and players just have to suck it up and deal with it. His frustration is understandable given the injury concerns plaguing Pittsburgh this season. The Steelers have been dealing with multiple injuries in each game, and research from the University of Missouri School of Medicine shows that knee injuries can increase up to three point seven times when players have less than seven days rest between games.

Despite these challenges, Rodgers is thriving on the field. Tribune Live reports that he's on pace to break the Steelers' season passing touchdown record, having thrown fourteen touchdown passes through the first third of the season. That puts him tied for the NFL lead in passing touchdowns, showcasing that even at forty-one years old, he's still operating at an elite level.

The Steelers are currently awaiting the return of Calvin Austin the third while players like Malik Harrison and Corey Trice Junior work their way back from injured reserve. With another short-week game on the schedule, the risk of additional injuries looms large, which only reinforces Rodgers' criticism of the league's scheduling priorities. His willingness to speak candidly about these issues demonstrates why having a veteran of his stature and experience can be valuable beyond just what happens on the field.
