Rodgers Plans Final NFL Season With Steelers

Aaron Rodgers, the veteran quarterback and four-time NFL MVP, announced on 'The Pat McAfee Show' that the 2025 NFL season with the Pittsburgh Steelers will likely be his last, having signed a one-year deal to conclude his 21-year career. Rodgers spent 18 years with the Green Bay Packers, winning a Super Bowl and setting multiple franchise records, before a brief stint with the New York Jets. He has expressed that Pittsburgh, with its leadership under coach Mike Tomlin, is the ideal setting to end his career with 'love, fun, and peace.' While Rodgers left open a slight possibility of continuing, his statements and contract indicate a strong intent to retire after 2025. There is speculation he may sign a ceremonial one-day contract to retire as a Packer and be inducted into their Hall of Fame. His final season will feature several high-profile matchups, including a return to Green Bay in Week 8.
