Aaron Rodgers complains about playing surface at Raymond James Stadium

After Sunday’s overtime win against the Buccaneers in Tampa, Steelers quarterback Aaron Rodgers had a formal complaint to file.

His grievance du jour centered on the quality of the grass field at Raymond James Stadium.

“It’s got to be one of the worst surfaces in the league,” Rodgers told reporters. “And, you know, we’re talking about player safety. You know, I’m very thankful to not get hurt. I’ve gotten hurt twice on this field. You know, in my opinion, because of the turf. Now, I know USF plays here, I believe. But that surface, you know, it’s . . . I don’t think it’s very safe.”

Not all grass fields are created equal. The grass vs. turf debate implies that the grass will be high quality. In Tampa, Rodgers believes it isn’t.

Last year, the quality of the grass on Rodgers’s home field in Pittsburgh was an issue — and Rodgers wasn’t afraid to say so, calling it “borderline unplayable.”

The issues in Pittsburgh apparently have been addressed. In Tampa, Rodgers thinks the same thing needs to happen.
