DeShon Elliott Rejects Aaron Rodgers Joining Steelers

The Pittsburgh Steelers are seen as potential favorites to acquire quarterback Aaron Rodgers, who is expected to part ways with the New York Jets. However, safety DeShon Elliott expressed strong disapproval of the idea, commenting on Instagram that the Steelers should 'leave his ass at the retirement home.' Despite speculation about Rodgers, team sources indicate skepticism, labeling the hype around him as exaggerated and expressing a preference for Justin Fields as the starting quarterback. The Steelers are exploring other options as well, including the possibility of re-signing Russell Wilson or considering new names in the quarterback market. Elliott's comments reflect a broader sentiment within the team regarding Rodgers' leadership and performance this past season. The Steelers' decision-making will ultimately hinge on their evaluation of available quarterbacks and their future plans.
