Mike Tomlin has decided not to play Aaron Rodgers in Pittsburgh's preseason game against Tampa Bay. Rodgers, the NFL's oldest player and a four-time MVP, is expected to make his official debut with the Steelers in the season opener against the New York Jets on Sept.

Aaron Rodgers, along with veterans including DK Metcalf, Jonnu Smith, T.J. Watt, and Cam Heyward, won't participate in the Steelers' second preseason game against the Buccaneers, coach Mike Tomlin said Thursday.

Aaron Rodgers will wait at least another week before he plays in his first game as a member of the Pittsburgh Steelers. Rodgers is among the Steelers veterans who won't see the field when the Steelers host the Buccaneers in Saturday's second preseason game,
