Week 2 of training camp brought scuffles here and there. Aaron Rodgers, a seasoned veteran with 20 NFL seasons under his belt, has found a way to be entertained with his teammates' actions during practice.

The 41-year-old quarterback sent a clear message to his teammates on Wednesday, talking about how things would be handled if there's a spat in practice. During his appearance on "The Pat McAfee Show," Rodgers said everybody was betting on who would be involved in the first fight.

He went with center Zach Frazier or guard Mason McCormick.

"Today we're all taking side bets on who the first fight is going to be," Rodgers said. "And if I'm a betting man, I'm saying that either Zach Frazier or Mason McCormick will be involved in the first fight...He's definitely not promoting fights. You know, it's one of the rules, no fighting but if something starts, whip his a*s. Get it on baby."

Aaron Rodgers was only healthy for a single season with the New York Jets. After missing the entire 2023 campaign with an Achilles injury suffered in the season opener, he played 17 games for the "Gang Green," recording 368 completions for 3,897 yards and 28 touchdowns against 11 interceptions.

He's now set to take over from Russell Wilson and Justin Fields to try to lead the Pittsburgh Steelers to their first playoff win in nine years.

Cam Heyward agrees with T.J. Watt on Aaron Rodgers' trash-talking

Aaron Rodgers has made quite an impression on his new teammates, especially with how he addresses and tries to upset opposing defenders. T.J. Watt called it "frustrating," something that Cam Heyward confirmed.

The defensive tackle told McAfee that Rodgers talks a lot, but he can't be more serious about his business.

"I think when you talk about Aaron, he talks a lot of crap. But, man, I love how he goes about his work. He approaches it the right way. He's asking questions. He's been asking us about Week 1, how to prepare for that night meetings. You know, he's all about being locked in with this group, which is great."

The Steelers have renewed hopes after landing Rodgers on a one-year deal. This will be his last dance in the NFL and he wants to leave the competition on the highest possible note. Another Super Bowl win would be the perfect closure to an honored career.
