Pittsburgh steelers are still looking to fill the fourth and last quarter of their list. It should be a veteran addition. Several names have been mentioned, but the one who continues to resurface is Aaron Rodgers.
The legend of the NFL is approaching the end of her career and seems to focus on a last push towards the playoffs and, hopefully, a super bowl. Rodgers has been linked to the Steelers for some time, and many thought that a decision could be made once the NFL calendar. However, this did not happen.
“If you are Rodgers, don’t you wait at this stage, wait until the calendar is out?” Said Mike Florio. “Because it is not as if the Steelers were going to get fewer games in great listening than what they would get otherwise.”
A potential advantage for the steelers is that the delay in the signing of Rodgers may have helped them to avoid an overloaded calendar on great listening hours.
“Steelers do not yet have a QB – and uncertainty around Aaron Rodgers – may have worked in their favor. They only obtained 4 games in prime time. If Rodgers had signed, they would probably have had 6+ and some vacation slots like the jets had the last two years, which would have made a much more unbalanced schedule,” said Meirov.
Rodgers would be dealing with personal questions, which could explain why he has not yet officially signed with the Steelers. However, a decision could happen soon.

“I just think verbally, behind the scenes, not that he guaranteed it, but we tell him [the Steelers]”Listen, I’m going to play for you. I just don’t want to go and then I miss a part of the mini-cap compulsory because of my personal problems. I’m about sure they are going to be resolved by the end of May, at least in my satisfaction where I can give you everything I Ian O’Connor said.
Rodgers seems to have already given a verbal commitment to the Steelers, but hesitates to sign anything restrictive until his personal questions are resolved. Judging by recent reports, it can be extremely close to putting the pen on paper and officially reaching Pittsburgh.
