This time around, though, it\u2019s more about who they haven\u2019t acquired rather than who is already on the roster.<\/p>\n<p>Aaron Rodgers remains unsigned, which becomes a more irritable story by the day. In light of this, Moe Moton of Bleacher Report suggests that the Steelers bring in a second 2024 Tennessee Titans quarterback and trade for Will Levis.<\/p>\n<p>Advertisement<\/p>\n<p>\u201cRegardless of Aaron Rodgers\u2019 decision to play for the Steelers or retire, Pittsburgh should offer a fourth-round pick for Levis,\u201d Moton writes. \u201cRodgers will turn 42 in December. At this point, he\u2019s a year-to-year player. Levis has two years left on his rookie deal. If the Steelers finish the 2025 season with a mediocre record and Rodgers only sticks around for one year, they would at least have an experienced young starter in Levis, whom they can develop for the long term. In seven seasons, Mason Rudolph has been a game manager. At 25, Levis, with his big arm and mobility, has far more upside.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>With all due respect to Moton, trading a fourth-round pick for Levis would be as good at flushing the pick down the toilet. This is a team that has a backup already in one former Titan (and arguably the better quarterback) in Mason Rudolph.
