Steelers DC Teryl Austin has spent time in the NFC North trenches with Aaron Rodgers — and he’s finally glad to be on the same side in Pittsburgh.
Austin, who served as the Lions‘ defensive coordinator from 2014 to 2017, had a hilarious take on Rodgers at Steelers mandatory minicamp (courtesy of ESPN’s Brooke Pryor):
“Well, he’s a pain in the a–.”
More eloquent words have never been spoken — well said, Austin. Well said.
According to Pryor, the Steelers defensive coordinator continued to praise Rodgers’ arm strength and accuracy — arguing that zero decline is evident since their NFC North battles, except for the four-time MVP’s desire to rush less.
Rodgers went 4-2 against the Austin-coached Lions defense — and it’s safe to say the Steelers DC is looking forward to getting some sweet revenge during practice reps.
