While the Pittsburgh Steelers never set a hard deadline, it sounds like next week’s mandatory minicamp was the put-up or shut-up moment for Aaron Rodgers. After giving him nearly three months of grace, Sports Illustrated’s Albert Breer reports the team made it known it was “important” for Rodgers to attend the team’s minicamp, the final three practices before the team broke for the summer.
The @Steelers are signing @AaronRodgers12 to a one-year deal, sources confirm (NFL Network and the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette first). For Pittsburgh, Rodgers reporting in time for the June minicamp was important, and Rodgers has obliged.
