The Pittsburgh Steelers believe Aaron Rodgers is "headed in our direction," even while providing no timeline for the free agent quarterback to make a decision regarding his NFL future. Now Steelers great Ben Roethlisberger has weighed in on the Rodgers sweepstakes,

"I don't know that we've approached it from a deadline perspective," Tomlin detailed, per The Athletic's Mike DeFabo. "Certainly, as I mentioned, you'd like to have settled circumstances. But, you know, deadlines don't often bring that to a head."

NFL insider Mike Florio proposed a possible reason why quarterback Aaron Rodgers hasn't signed with the Pittsburgh Steelers yet.

In a zany 2025 NFL Draft mock-up written by ESPN's Bill Barnwell, the Pittsburgh Steelers traded for Colts QB Anthony Richardson.

The Pittsburgh Steelers are in a weird spot entering the NFL draft. They have a good all-around roster but have some huge roles at significant positions. One such hole is at quarterback, where they currently have Mason Rudolph as the starter.

While it seems the Steelers are the most likely landing spot for Aaron Rodgers, signing him would not preclude them from looking toward the future at quarterback. Rodgers is 41 years old, and each coming season is a true year-to-year proposition.
