Pittsburgh Steelers Pursue Aaron Rodgers Amid Quarterback Shuffle

The Pittsburgh Steelers are in a holding pattern regarding their quarterback situation as they await Aaron Rodgers' decision on his future. With rumors swirling that Rodgers could land with the New Orleans Saints due to Derek Carr's shoulder injury, the Steelers are also considering alternative options, including a trade for Kirk Cousins from the Atlanta Falcons. If Rodgers opts to retire or sign elsewhere, Pittsburgh is likely to pivot towards acquiring Cousins, who is seeking a starting position after a disappointing season. Meanwhile, the Steelers were reportedly interested in Joe Flacco, but he has chosen to play for the Cleveland Browns. This uncertainty leaves the Steelers with Mason Rudolph and Skylar Thompson, but they are expected to bolster their quarterback room in the draft as well. The situation remains fluid, with Rodgers holding significant leverage in negotiations as the offseason progresses.
