While it has been expected the two sides would work something out this offseason, there are still nerves for fans in Pittsburgh about whether or not Rodgers will actually sign with the Steelers.<\/p>\n<p>Most of those nerves come from the fact that Pittsburgh does not currently have a legitimate starting quarterback for a team that wants to be a Super Bowl contender.<\/p>\n<p>Currently, the two quarterback options for the Steelers are Mason Rudolph and Will Howard. Both quarterbacks have talent, but they aren&#8217;t the kind of signal callers who can power a championship run.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"mapping-embed imgPhoto\" id=\"i2610174\" src=\"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nfl\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/1747926130_412_aaron-rodgers.jpg\" alt=\"Aaron Rodgers\" width=\"1200\" height=\"860\"\/><br \/>\nLONDON, ENGLAND &#8211; OCTOBER 06: Aaron Rodgers of New York Jets looks on during the NFL match between New York Jets and Minnesota Vikings at Tottenham Hotspur Stadium on October 06, 2024 in London, England&#8230;.<br \/>\nLONDON, ENGLAND &#8211; OCTOBER 06: Aaron Rodgers of New York Jets looks on during the NFL match between New York Jets and Minnesota Vikings at Tottenham Hotspur Stadium on October 06, 2024 in London, England.<br \/>\nMore<br \/>\nNaomi Baker\/Getty Images<\/p>\n<p>Even at 41 years old, Rodgers is still more than capable of being that kind of player. His production during the 2024 <a href=\"https:\/\/www.newsweek.com\/sports\/nfl\" data-sys=\"1\" class=\"multivariate\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">NFL<\/a> season with the New York Jets proves that fact.<\/p>\n<p>Read more: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.newsweek.com\/sports\/nfl\/steelers-receive-head-turning-update-aaron-rodgers-biographer-2074181\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener nofollow\" class=\"multivariate\">Steelers Receive Head-Turning Update from Aaron Rodgers&#8217; Biographer<\/a><\/p>\n<p>Last year, Rodgers played in all 17 games just one year removed from a torn Achilles. He completed 63 percent of his pass attempts for 3,897 yards, 28 touchdowns, and 11 interceptions.<\/p>\n<p>A new name has chimed in with a prediction about Rodgers&#8217; future.

He has also held a private throwing session with star wideout DK Metcalf, who he had nothing but great things to say about after the fact.<\/p>\n<p>All signs still point to the legendary quarterback making one more run at another Super Bowl win. In Pittsburgh, he will have a legitimate chance to make that run.<\/p>\n<p>Expect to hear more news and rumors about Rodgers in the coming days. It would not be surprising to see something get done between him and the Steelers soon.
