Aaron Rodgers battled through flu-like symptoms and a fever before the Steelers’ playoff game against the Texans, even getting sent home from the hotel—but he played anyway, crediting the Texans’ defense for his shaky performance. His old OC called him looking awful, but Rodgers never complained, embodying his relentless work ethic. The team quietly brushed past his illness after the loss, as attention shifted to Coach Tomlin’s exit. Had they won, it might’ve become another legendary tale of grit. It’s a reminder that greatness often hides behind the scenes, battling more than just opponents.
