It's worth noting that Smith has also shown a preference for bigger backs, thought some of that is just that he had Derrick Henry in Tennessee, Tyler Allgeier (and Bijan Robinson) in Atlanta and then Najee Harris last year in Pittsburgh.

Aaron Rodgers is almost assuredly not the exit ramp for the Pittsburgh Steelers. He has already said this is likely to be his final season. It would be understandable for the Steelers to see the value in Rodgers as a one-year fix if they had a promising young quarterback in the pipeline or were Super Bowl contenders,
