About this listen

In this clip from the Wednesday edition of the North Shore Drive podcast, presented by Edgar Snyder & Associates, host Adam Bittner welcomes Post-Gazette insider Christopher Carter to analyze the leadership and locker room presence Aaron Rodgers is bringing to the Steelers.

What do Skylar Thompson's glowing remarks about Rodgers tell us about how his new teammates are receiving him? To what degree is he defying the "circus" label that accompanied him from the New York Jets? Has he humbled himself because of that experience? Does he see value in just being one of the guys in coach Mike Tomlin's locker room alongside other veterans like T.J. Watt, DK Metcalf, Cam Heyward and Jalen Ramsey? And how does his leadership style compare to that of Russell Wilson last year? Our guys tackles those questions and more.
