Pittsburgh Steelers executives aren't the only ones eagerly awaiting a decision from Aaron Rodgers on whether he plans to play football this season. The NFL schedule makers also were following the Rodgers saga very closely.
Rodgers has had talks about signing with Pittsburgh but hasn't made a final decision if he wants to play in 2025, leaving the Steelers with Mason Rudolph and rookie Will Howard currently at the top of the depth chart.
The league still gave the Steelers four prime-time games and one standalone international game in Ireland in Week 4 in the schedule released Wednesday, banking that the team's strong following and history of success under coach Mike Tomlin will make them an attractive team for networks no matter what Rodgers decides.
