On the latest segment of ESPN’s Get Up, former Pittsburgh Steelers safety Ryan Clark spoke about the enigmatic Aaron Rodgers. The 2-time NFL MVP has thrown for 2,253 yards with 24 passing TDs to his name from 8 games in 2020 so far. He is currently head-to-head with Seattle Seahawks quarterback, Russell Wilson, for this year’s MVP award.
