At What Point Is Steelers Signing Aaron Rodgers A Net Negative?

At what point is the Steelers signing Aaron Rodgers a net negative?

While it sounds like the Steelers are willing to wait for Aaron Rodgers indefinitely, there are consequences to his signing. In theory, he is more talented and skilled than their other options at quarterback. But he is also a divisive figure who, publicly, has shown no commitment to the Steelers. Or even to playing football, period, giving no indication of a motivation to play.

The Steelers have begun OTAs, and Aaron Rodgers isn’t here. While OTAs are voluntary, and he isn’t even under contract, the only reason he isn’t under contract is because he has chosen not to be.
