Schefter: Aaron Rodgers Was Third Choice at QB for Steelers This Offseason

NFL insider Adam Schefter revealed on ESPN that four-time NFL MVP quarterback Aaron Rodgers was not the Pittsburgh Steelers first option this offseason. He was actually third, behind Justin Fields and Los Angeles Rams quarterback Matthew Stafford.

“This was the best move that the Pittsburgh Steelers could make right now,” Schefter said. “But, lets also remember, this was the third option for the Pittsburgh Steelers. They were in on Matthew Stafford and couldn’t get done a trade. They tried to re-sign Justin Fields, he opted to go to the New York Jets where he will meet Aaron Rodgers on opening...

Is Aaron Rodgers a Short-Term Fix or a Long-Term Setback for Steelers?

Is Aaron Rodgers a Short-Term Fix or a Long-Term Setback for Steelers?

The Pittsburgh Steelers’ decision to sign four-time MVP quarterback Aaron Rodgers may appear promising at first glance, particularly given the uncertainty surrounding their quarterback room, led by Mason Rudolph. However, a deeper evaluation raises legitimate questions about whether the move meaningfully improves the team’s long-term trajectory.

At 41 years old, Aaron Rodgers remains one of the most accomplished quarterbacks in NFL history. Even after missing most of the 2023 season with a torn Achilles, he returned to start for the New York Jets in 2024. Statistically, Rodgers looked strong, surpassing 3,500 passing yards and throwing 28 touchdowns. However when you...

Terry Bradshaw’s No. 12 remains unofficially retired with the Steelers.
