PITTSBURGH —
Quarterback Aaron Rodgers, a four-time MVP and a Super Bowl winner, has agreed to sign with the Pittsburgh Steelers, the team confirmed late Thursday night.
The deal is for a one-year contract, pending a physical. Rodgers plans to fly to Pittsburgh this week and participate in the team’s mandatory minicamp next week, ESPN’s Adam Schefter reported Thursday.
The addition of the 41-year-old Rodgers is the latest in a series of offseason moves that are bringing big changes to Pittsburgh’s quarterback room for a second straight year.
It also sets up a potential Week 1 matchup of Rodgers and Justin Fields, the former Steelers quarterback who is now with the New York Jets. Those teams will meet in the 2025 season opener.
Steelers training camp schedule: When you can catch them in Latrobe
Rodgers was released by the Jets on March 12, following a season in which he threw for 3,897 yards, 28 touchdowns and 11 interceptions with a 90.5 passer rating.
Since Rodgers’ departure from the Jets, there had been plenty of rumors on where the quarterback would land.
On March 21, Rodgers visited the Steelers’ facility and met with head coach Mike Tomlin.
Ten days later, at the annual NFL league meetings, Tomlin was asked about Rodgers.
“We had a really productive day,” Tomlin said about the meeting. “He’s been in this thing a long time. I’ve been in this thing a long time. But it’s no substitute for intimacy and spending time together and getting to know one another in a non-competitive environment, so that was really good.”
Rodgers’ visit to Pittsburgh was also a topic of discussion when the quarterback appeared on “The Pat McAfee Show” on April 17.
“I talked to Mike Tomlin. He’s more than I thought as person. I have a lot of respect for what he’s accomplished in the league,” Rodgers told McAfee.
The Steelers would be Rodgers’ third team of his career. The black and gold hope that he will be a difference-maker for a franchise that made the playoffs the last two seasons, and four of the past five under Tomlin, but failed to get out of the wild-card round.
RODGERS IN, FIELDS OUT
The news of Rodgers’ deal in the Steel City comes after the New York Giants signed former Steelers quarterback Russell Wilson and Fields, who was Pittsburgh’s Week 1 starter last year, signed with the Jets.
Fields started the first six games of the 2024 season, leading the Steelers to a 4-2 record with Wilson out due to a calf injury.
At the end of last season, owner Art Rooney II said it was unlikely that both Fields and Wilson would both return, but that he had a preference for the Steelers to choose one. As it turned out, neither QB will be back in Pittsburgh this season.
MASON RUDOLPH RETURNS
In addition to Rodgers, the Steelers have signed quarterback Mason Rudolph.
Rudolph, who played his first five seasons with Pittsburgh before moving on to Tennessee, signed a two-year contract on March 14 to return to the Steelers.
Rudolph allegedly mulled other offers, which included returning to the Titans.
ANOTHER NEW QB
The Steelers also added a quarterback through the draft in April.
Will Howard, a Pennsylvania native, was a sixth-round pick by Pittsburgh in the 2025 NFL Draft.
Howard led Ohio State to a 14-2 record and the national championship in his only season with the Buckeyes after transferring from Kansas State.
RODGERS’ ACCOLADES
Rodgers will be coming to the Steelers with a number of awards already under his belt.
At Super Bowl XLV in 2011, Rodgers faced the Steelers as the quarterback for the Green Bay Packers. The Packers won that game 31-25.
Along with becoming a Super Bowl champion, Rodgers was named Super Bowl MVP, completing 24 of 39 passes. Rodgers made three touchdowns that game and had no interceptions.
