On Monday morning, NFL Network’s Ian Rapoport reported that the Green Bay Packers are releasing two-time Pro Bowl CB Jaire Alexander. That’s one less quality cornerback for the Packers when the Pittsburgh Steelers host them later this season. Alexander’s release also means there is a new cornerback on the free-agent market. And the Steelers have […]
At the beginning of the 2024 season, the Pittsburgh Steelers suffered quite a few injuries. Some important players went down all around the roster, but the Steelers’ offensive line was hit especially hard. Despite that, Pittsburgh got some respectable performances from a few players who stepped up when needed, and some of those names will […]
New Pittsburgh Steelers quarterback Aaron Rodgers and offensive coordinator Arthur Smith have reportedly already developed a strong working relationship as they look to tailor the team’s offensive scheme around Rodgers’ skill set.
According to ESPN’s Jeremy Fowler, the two have been in “constant communication” throughout the offseason, working to “reconfigure the offense” and “find a sweet spot where Rodgers can still do all the things he likes to do at the line of scrimmage, while staying true to the system.”
At first glance, Smith’s offensive philosophy may appear like a significant adjustment for Rodgers. Smith has traditionally leaned on heavy...

Former NFL quarterback and current ESPN analyst Dan Orlovsky believes the Pittsburgh Steelers’ signing of Aaron Rodgers will keep them in the middle of the pack, which won’t bode well for the franchise in the 2026 NFL Draft.
“Worst place they could be in,” Orlovsky said Monday on ESPN’s Get Up. “He’s good enough, they’re [the Steelers} good enough. They’re gonna go 9-8, 10-7. They don’t matter in the playoffs and we all known that. And then they’re not bad enough to get a top-eight pick and finally find the quarterback of the future. This still is a subpar offensive...
In NFL terms, Aaron Rodgers playing for a maximum of not even $20 million is a cheap contract.
