Aaron Rodgers issues ultimatum to Steelers amid draft speculation

News summary

Speculation is mounting that Aaron Rodgers may have influenced the Pittsburgh Steelers' decision not to draft quarterback Shedeur Sanders, with some analysts suggesting Rodgers signaled he did not want Sanders as a potential competitor in the quarterback room. NFL insider Ross Tucker and others believe the Steelers' confidence in potentially securing Rodgers led them to pass on drafting a top quarterback, instead selecting Will Howard in the sixth round. Despite reports of mutual interest and a contract offer on the table since March, Rodgers has yet to commit to the Steelers, leaving the team's quarterback situation uncertain as offseason preparations progress. Team owner Art Rooney II has acknowledged Rodgers' interest in joining Pittsburgh but has expressed impatience with the ongoing wait. Some commentators argue that Rodgers is entitled to take his time deciding his future, especially given his age and personal commitments, while others stress the importance of his participation in key offseason activities if he joins. The situation remains unresolved, fueling debate among fans and analysts about Rodgers' next move and the Steelers' quarterback strategy.
