Steelers Set April 21 Deadline for Aaron Rodgers Decision

The Pittsburgh Steelers are awaiting a decision from quarterback Aaron Rodgers, who is weighing his options between joining the team, the New York Giants, or possibly retiring. The Steelers have established a soft deadline of April 21 for Rodgers to make a decision, coinciding with the start of their offseason workouts, which are critical for establishing team chemistry and learning Rodgers' intricate hand signals. While some speculate that Rodgers may be delaying his decision to influence Pittsburgh's offer, others suggest he is simply enjoying the attention. Reports indicate that Rodgers spent over six hours at the Steelers' facility recently, prompting speculation that he could be leaning towards signing with them. Although the Giants signed backup quarterback Jameis Winston, they still hope to attract Rodgers, but the Steelers are currently considered the frontrunners. The anticipated timeline for Rodgers' announcement may align with an upcoming event in Pittsburgh on April 9, where he is expected to appear.
