Steelers Could Limit Aaron Rodgers' Exposure

Theoretically, The Athletic's Mike DeFabo writes that Pittsburgh Steelers quarterback Aaron Rodgers won't have as much pressure to win games with his right arm alone on a team that has the league's highest-paid defense and features a run-heavy offense that will limit his exposure.

Washington Commanders tight end Ben Sinnott has stood out during offseason practices, according to head coach Dan Quinn.
