Aaron Rodgers Appears Livid After Being Tackled By Teammate

After completing an impressive 68-yard touchdown pass to Pat Freiermuth late in Thursday’s matchup against the Cincinnati Bengals, Aaron Rodgers was celebrating with his Steelers teammates. As he celebrated the clutch play, he was blindsided by Steelers lineman Broderick Jones with a huge tackle.

Rodgers was visibly angry at his 300+ pound teammate, but was uninjured.
