Post-Gazette Steelers insiders Brian Batko and Ray Fittipaldo report from the second day of the team's minicamp at its South Side facility.

They recap Arthur Smith's press conference. What did Smith have to say about the popular notion that he and Russell Wilson didn't get along late last season due to Smith not allowing his quarterback to change plays at the line of scrimmage? How does he plan to utilize new weapons like Aaron Rodgers and DK Metcalf, going so far as to say they didn't bring those guys in to run the wishbone?

The guys tackle those questions, then take a deeper look at the offense in general. What will Rodgers' wide receivers look like behind Metcalf. Will Roman Wilson or Calvin Austin III take over that WR2 spot? Or will the Steelers add another receiver via free agency or trade, like Allen Lazard or Keenan Allen? Will the offensive line, including Troy Fautanu and Broderick Jones, be able to step up and protect the 41-year-old future Hall of Famer?

New Steelers WR DK Metcalf speaks to reporters at the team's minicamp at its South Side facility. He explains his growing relationship with new QB Aaron Rodgers, including what he learned about him via an offseason throwing session. He also explains how he's fitting into OC Arthur Smith's offense alongside names like Calvin Austin III, Robert Woods, Roman Wilson and Pat Freiermith; and why he wishes he'd gotten a chance to play with George Pickens before he was traded to the Dallas Cowboys.

On the Wednesday episode of the North Shore Drive podcast, presented by Edgar Snyder & Associates, Post-Gazette Steelers insiders Christopher Carter and Brian Batko react to the team's first day of minicamp at its South Side facility.

What should we make of Aaron Rodgers' first comments since signing last weekend? Particularly his view of himself as a "servant leader." Can he really make a difference in the locker room? Particularly for young players like Will Howard? And how is he fitting into Arthur Smith's offense alongside names like DK Metcalf, Jaylen Warren, Calvin Austin III, Kaleb Johnson and Pat Freiermuth?

Our duo tackles those questions; T.J. Watt's absence from the scene as he searches for a new contract; and news that Derrick Harmon has already seized a starting spot along the defensive line next to Cam Heyward and Keeanu Benton. What does that mean for his upside as a rookie?
