Corey Linsley has the one of the most important jobs on the football field as a center on the offensive line. Luckily for him, he has had the opportunity to block for and snap the ball to a future Hall of Fame quarterback, Aaron Rodgers, and one of the NFL’s rising stars in Justin Herbert.
Linsley, who previously spent six seasons snapping the ball to the Packers star, joined the Chargers ahead of the 2021 season. With experience of playing with both quarterbacks, the second-team All-Pro center said Herbert has the same “fire, perfectionist-type attitude” as Rodgers, which bodes well for the young quarterback heading into his third NFL season.
“He just has that… ‘I want to be the best that I can be,” Linsley said on SiriusXM NFL radio. “I want my team to be the best and I’m not going to let anything stop me. … Aaron [Rodgers] has that same… fire, perfectionist-type attitude… that competitive fire inside of him. And, that’s what Justin has.”
