Whoa, okay, where to even start? So, picture this: Aaron Rodgers, yep, the big cheese QB we all know, might be chillin’ with the Pittsburgh Steelers soon. And he’s, you know, not getting any younger—he’s pushing 42 by the season’s end. Anyway, it’s like this former NFL GM dude, Mike Tannenbaum, popped up on ESPN and had this wild thought. He’s all, “Keep an eye on Kaleb Johnson,” who, by the way, just got drafted from Iowa as a running back in the third round. I mean, can you believe it?
Rodgers, at his age, getting smacked around? Nah, no thanks. It’s like Tannenbaum’s thinking out loud—maybe Arthur Smith (the coach guy) will just let Johnson run wild and save Rodgers’ bones. Sounds smart, right? Play-action and all… And who knows, if Kaleb and the offensive line get their act together, Rodgers might actually have a good time this year.
Now, what everyone’s buzzing about is how cool it’d be to see Aaron and Arthur teaming up in Pittsburgh. It’s like waiting for your food delivery, wondering if the pizza will look as good as the picture. You just gotta see it to believe it!
You remember how Rodgers used to rule the field, right? Now, he’s not that spry kid anymore. You can’t have him glued to the pocket, risking those big, scary third-and-long scenarios. That’s where Johnson could be a game changer.
Here’s a twist for ya, Johnson’s style is kinda like Najee Harris when he was all fresh outta college. But folks say Johnson’s got a bit more zing in his step. He can bulldoze through defenses but also surprise you with those insane long runs. Talk about a double threat!
Does anyone actually know what Johnson’s role will be at the start? Nah, it’s all still up in the air. There’s this summer buzz about him, but being a third-round rookie… well, cool your jets. Jaylen Warren’s already warming the bench, ready to roll. Johnson might start by sharing duties, and let’s not forget Warren’s not too shabby in pass protection.
But, and it’s a big “but,” if Johnson starts leveling up his game, who’s to say he won’t get more plays? I mean, he’s got this knack for racking up yards, even against heavy defenses back at Iowa. If he can make the league take the Steelers’ run game seriously, wow, that’d open up a whole new can of worms for the offense. Just wait and see…
