If Aaron Rogers is going to make the Steelers offense different this year,

he's got to use the middle of the field.

We talk about that in the Locked on Steelers podcast.

Let's get into it.

w px i jena it's great to have you back on what an intro first of all i feel like i always say that

but thank you thank you um week one is here chris it finally it's here it's It's happening. We have football. We're so back. We're so back.

We're so back now. We are recording this as the Eagles are playing the Cowboys on Thursday

night football. But I'm going to talk to Jenna about one particular thing. One thing we did not see.

Of all the things we got to see, we got to see training camp, we got to see preseason. We did not see Aaron Rogers and D.K. Metcalf

together leading this offense into what it's supposed to be in 2025. And one thing I have been

asking a lot this offseason and got more specific answers this week on about was how this

offense is finally going to attack the middle of the field and how that can open up the team

and why they can attack the middle of the field this year.

And I asked Aaron Rogers about that.

I want you all to hear what Aaron Rogers had to say when I asked about attacking the middle of the field and why the tight ends play a huge role in that and what he plans to use. Here is Aaron Rogers in the Steelers locker room this week. Aaron, Pat talked about how excited he was to work the middle of the field with you. It hasn't been something he's had a lot of opportunities to do. What excites you about this group as far as attacking the middle field with the personnel that you have available to you?

I think it's the best tight-in room that I've been around in 21 years.
