Ocho, veteran wide receiver Marquez Valdez-Scantling explains why he signed with the 49ers over the Steelers.
It was between here and Pittsburgh, obviously.
I have a good relationship with Aaron Rodgers over there, and he wanted me back over there, so it was a toss-up 50-50.
Had to weigh my options to see which one I wanted to do, which is going to be better for my career at this point.
I was excited about it.
What'd you think, Ocho?
He picked the 49ers instead?
Yep.
I mean... I don't want to read too much into it.
He said he had a good relationship.
He played with Aaron, didn't he?
And they're loaded in Pittsburgh.
They got DK, Calvin Austin III.
Come on now.
Yeah.
Well, not as you mentioned.
I mean, he played a number of years with Aaron.
But, hey, he said at this point in time in his career, he felt he'd be better served in San Fran.
So he's in San Fran.
