Aaron Rodgers highlights Max Iheanachor’s technique and long-term potential

SB Nation

Aaron Rodgers praised rookie tackle Max Iheanachor’s technique, calling his future “really bright” and saying he would become a Steelers offensive-line fixture once ready. Pittsburgh has allowed 29 pressures and six sacks of Rodgers through two games.

Rodgers said Iheanachor is raw because he has not played football long, but praised his “beautiful” sets. Pittsburgh drafted him 21st overall in 2026; he had played only five years, did not play high school football, began at a community college and transferred to Arizona State in 2023.

The Steelers rank 30th in total offense with 278.5 yards. The article says their line needs to protect Rodgers and create time if Pittsburgh is to contend for the AFC North and make the playoffs in consecutive seasons.
