Steelers Sign Aaron Rodgers One-Year Deal After Coaching Talks

News summary

Aaron Rodgers signed a one-year contract with the Pittsburgh Steelers in June 2025, with head coach Mike Tomlin playing a key role in convincing him to join the team. Rodgers, who struggled with the Jets last season, is seen as a potential short-term solution for the Steelers’ quarterback position, with the team planning to draft a replacement in 2026. Analysts and insiders highlight that Rodgers will need to perform at a high level for both him and the Steelers to consider extending his stay beyond this season. Meanwhile, the Steelers are also looking to strengthen their receiving corps, with suggestions to acquire a No. 2 wide receiver such as Keenan Allen to support Rodgers. Despite Rodgers’ signing, the Steelers are preparing for his likely retirement after the 2025 season and have young quarterbacks on the roster who require further development. The overall outlook is that Rodgers is a bridge for the Steelers while they build toward a future quarterback through the draft.
