While everyone has an opinion about what Aaron Rodgers will do, Matt LaFleur knows more than most. He served as Rodgers’ head coach for four seasons from 2019 through 2022—before trading him. Still the head coach of the Packers, his team will be playing Rodgers if he signs with the Steelers.
“I’m anticipating that happening, so, I won’t be surprised”, LaFleur told Chris Simms for NBC Sports. “I just can’t see him not playing the game of football this year, and [signing with the Steelers] obviously makes the most sense”.
The Steelers have been courting Rodgers for some time now and have had a contract on the table all along.
