Veteran star Aaron Rodgers has offered some brutal advice to a Steelers teammate ahead of the new NFL season.
At their recent training camp, the 41-year-old was asked about second-year receiver Roman Wilson, who struggled to make an impact during his rookie season.
Wilson’s debut campaign was derailed by a hamstring injury in October but Rodgers suggested that there’s something else holding the young star back.
According to 93.7 The Fan, he said: ‘I gotta get Ro out of his head a little bit. I think he’s such a good kid.
‘He cares so much, whether it’s my approval or if he’s doing it right. He’s just gotta trust himself, because he’s so damn talented.
‘The more you can play free and not think out there, the better he’s gonna play. The more he can just trust what he’s got, and then just go out there and react, the better he can play.’
