Season 16, Episode 139 of The Terrible Podcast is now in the can. In this Friday morning show, Alex Kozora and I get right into discussing Pittsburgh Steelers QB Aaron Rodgers holding his first press conference this past week and on the heels of him signing his new contract.
Alex and I make sure to parse several key things that Rodgers said a few days ago and that includes us talking about his announcement that 2026 will be his final NFL season. We also make sure to go over all the details of the contract that Rodgers signed recently.
The Steelers released their 2026 training camp schedule on Thursday, so Alex and I make sure to recap those dates and the notable different changes that are included in it as well.
Steelers HC Mike McCarthy addressed the media a few days ago to discuss OTAs and the return of Rodgers, so we make sure to parse everything that was notable to come out of his mouth. We hyper focus some on what McCarthy had to say of OT Troy Fautanu and OG Mason McCormick both likely to shift to the left side of the offensive line for the 2026 season.
Alex and I take some time to discuss what OT Broderick Jones had to say this past week during an interview. We go over the plausibility of Jones not being ready for the start of training camp, and the possibility of him starting the 2026 regular season on the Reserve/PUP list. We also make sure to address the possibility of Jones not playing at all in 2026 and then having the final year of his contract toll next offseason should that wind up happening.
During this show, Alex and discuss whether improvements of either the offense or defense in 2026 could have a greater impact on the team in 2026 and why.
This 122-minute episode also discusses several other minor topics not noted in the recap above and we make sure to answer a few listener emails we have received to close out this show.
