Aaron Rodgers made his plans pretty clear on The Pat McAfee Show shortly after signing with the Steelers in June. He is entering the 2025 season with the intention of it being his final ride in the NFL. He has since softened that stance and continues to leave the door open for a 2026 return.
On Cam Heyward’s Not Just Football podcast, DK Metcalf and Rodgers were both describing how special the team cohesion is in Pittsburgh, and Metcalf slipped in a “maybe we can run it back” while staring directly at Rodgers with a wry smile.
