The Pittsburgh Steelers are reportedly “close” to signing QB Aaron Rodgers, the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette’s Gerry Dulac reported Monday afternoon.
The legal tampering period is underway and teams are free to verbally agree to contracts with players like Rodgers. The Steelers were adamant all offseason they wanted to re-sign Russell Wilson or Justin Fields but with Fields testing the market and drawing interest from the New York Jets, Pittsburgh could be set to start anew at quarterback for another season.
Monday morning, ESPN’s Adam Schefter tweeted Rodgers was seriously on the Steelers’ radar.
On the heels of Sunday’s trade for WR DK Metcalf, signing Rodgers would signal Pittsburgh’s desire to go all-in on the 2025 season.
