More than two months have gone by since free agency began and the Pittsburgh Steelers are still waiting on Aaron Rodgers. The team has shown rare patience for a free agent but with spring practices beginning, the clock seems like it should be ticking on Rodgers to decide. Tuesday, ESPN and beat writer Brooke Pryor downplayed that notion.
“I’ve talked with several Steelers sources this morning and they said it’s the status quo,” she said on SportsCenter. “They continue to remain in communication with Aaron Rodgers and they’re still optimistic that they ultimately end up landing him.”
Yesterday, ESPN’s Jeremy Fowler reported the Steelers remain in “communication” with Rodgers and his camp but like Pryor’s reporting, have no handshake deal or timetable for when he’ll decide and arrive, should be sign.
