Aaron Rodgers still has a bone to pick with NFL, as he still can’t find a helmet he likes to have in the field.
The four-time MVP quarterback loved Hans Schutt Air XP Pro Q11 LTD, but it no longer meets league standards.
As a result, Rodgers had to choose another helmet. And while he is stuck with Schutt, he is not too keen on his Air XP Pro VTD II model he has practiced at Pittsburgh Steeler’s training camp.

“I don’t like it, no,” he said Tuesday via ESPN. “I’m trying to change. We are still in the process. It looks like a damn spaceship out there.”
Rodgers did not specify how he exactly is trying to become comfortable in his new helmet, but he knows it should happen by week 1.

“We have to change it,” he added. “The face mask doesn’t fit the helmet because it’s an old face mask, obviously like I’m old, but we’re trying to find the right helmet right now.”

And Rodgers didn’t see if he liked his helmet during Steelers’ first forth season this last Saturday when they went to Jacksonville Jaguars. As it is across the league, most of the Surefire Steelers starters sat out.

However, Steelers goes against Tampa Bay Buccaneers in joint practice this week before turning out in week 2 of the forecast on Saturday at. 19 at Acrisure Stadium.
“Hopefully [Buccaneers head coach] Todd [Bowles]He probably won’t show everything, but he will do some things to emphasize our protection and give us a chance to get some movie to work on, “Rodgers said of going against Bucs’ defense in practice.
Rodgers is ready for years 21 in the NFL, which he said he is “pretty sure” will be his last season in the league.
“Yes, I’m pretty sure this is,” he said at the “The Pat McAfee Show” in June. “That’s why we just did one year appointment.”

Rodgers, with a kind of NFL-approved helmet, takes its former New York Jets at Metlife Stadium in week 1 on September 7.
