Aaron Rodgers ‘Should Be In Conversation’ As One Of League’s Best QBs, Steelers Safety Believes

He might be 41 years old and entering what he believes is his final NFL season, but new Pittsburgh Steelers quarterback Aaron Rodgers aims to play at a high level in 2025 and lead the Steelers back into contention.

Veteran safety Juan Thornhill, who also signed this offseason with the Steelers, believes Rodgers is still right there in the conversation with the likes of Buffalo’s Josh Allen and Kansas City’s Patrick Mahomes when it comes to the best quarterbacks in the league.

Speaking with reporters Wednesday during report day at Saint Vincent College in Latrobe, Thornhill heaped praise on his new quarterback, all while downplaying his age.
