PITTSBURGH – The winds are shifting in Steel City, and one name is lighting up the skyline: Aaron Rodgers. With the 2025 NFL Draft in the rearview mirror and no clear long-term answer under center, all signs are pointing to one possible outcome—Rodgers in black and gold.
Rookie prospect Shedeur Sanders thought he nailed his interview with Mike Tomlin, even calling it “a 10.”
“I understand the mindset and why they win so much… What he preaches is just like my dad,” Sanders said.
But when the moment came, Pittsburgh passed.
So now what? Enter the man, the myth, the future Hall of Famer—Aaron Rodgers.
Rodgers is officially out of the Jets’ plans and back on the market. And according to NFL insider James Palmer, the connection with the Steelers is more than just smoke.
“Rodgers has stayed in relatively constant contact with Mike Tomlin,” Palmer revealed on 93.7 The Fan.
“There are enough indicators that he could very well be Pittsburgh’s next quarterback.”
If not Rodgers, Pittsburgh is set to roll with rookie QB Will Howard, a late-round steal with championship pedigree. But let’s be real—if Rodgers is available, you pick up that call.
🕒 The Countdown Is On
NFL analyst Mike Florio believes Rodgers is simply biding his time, waiting for the league to drop the full schedule on May 14 before making his move.
“If you’re Rodgers, why wouldn’t you wait?” Florio said.
“It’s not like the Steelers are gonna get fewer primetime games.”
The Steelers are hungry. The fans are ready. And Rodgers? He may be just days away from launching a new chapter—one that could rewrite Pittsburgh’s future.
