From an outsider’s perspective, the Pittsburgh Steelers had a long three months to wait for Aaron Rodgers to sign with the team. For Mike Tomlin, the deal was happening long before pen officially met paper. Joining The Pivot podcast in an interview recorded last week and airing Sunday, Tomlin admitted he “knew something” about Rodgers’ 2025 plans.
“You’re right, I knew something,” Tomlin said with a smile in a conversation with Ryan Clark, Fred Taylor, and Channing Crowder.
The comments came on the heels of Clark wondering why Pittsburgh opted against using a high draft pick on a quarterback, waiting until the sixth round to address the position with Ohio State’s Will Howard.
