Aaron Rodgers is known for his big arm, quick release, and, in his prime, mobility that frustrated defenses. For Pittsburgh Steelers general manager Omar Khan, there’s another trait Rodgers has in spades. Toughness.
“The one thing about Aaron people don’t talk enough about is how tough he is,” Khan said in an interview on the NFL Daily podcast with Gregg Rosenthal and Jourdan Rodrigue. “He is a tough football player, and he’s a great leader.”
Khan referenced the same during an earlier interview during his Tuesday media tour, noting Rodgers’ toughness “resonated” with the rest of the organization.
