Tensions were fiery on the final day of Steelers training camp<\/a> \u2014 and the outspoken 20-year veteran QB Aaron Rodgers<\/a> finally showed off some of the tough love he’s been known to possess throughout his career.<\/p>\n

On Tuesday, sideline reporters spotted Rodgers having some choice words for rookie RB Kaleb Johnson<\/a> \u2014 who ran the wrong route in practice, leaving the Steelers<\/a> quarterback upset.<\/p>\n

“It wasn’t some hushed sideline chat,” one practice attendee remarked, via Marca.com.<\/a> “You could see Rodgers’ body language from across the field.”<\/p>\n

Rodgers is no stranger to voicing his frustrations and holding his teammates accountable \u2014 such as the “red line incident” with WR Mike Williams on the Jets, perhaps his most infamous example.<\/p>\n

Previously, former NFL defensive end Chris Long hinted that these outbursts and frustrations from Rodgers, directed at his teammates, could result in drama <\/a>between the four-time MVP and his star wide receiver DK Metcalf.<\/p>\n

While alarming at first glance, Rodgers\u2019 veteran leadership will do far more good than harm for these young players \u2014 which is especially true for Johnson, who’s come under criticism recently<\/a>.<\/p>\n
