Steelers, Packers Face Major Roster Decisions for 2025

The Pittsburgh Steelers are evaluating rookie wide receiver Roman Wilson, who must improve his instincts to secure a significant role, as quarterback Aaron Rodgers begins his first season with the team but will likely sit out the preseason opener due to the quarterback depth chart and Will Howard's injury. Meanwhile, the Green Bay Packers are rumored to be pursuing a blockbuster trade for Cowboys linebacker Micah Parsons, who has formally requested a trade after contract negotiations stalled, with analysts speculating the move could cost Green Bay multiple first-round picks and receiver Romeo Doubs. The Packers are also experiencing a crowded wide receiver room, with rookie Matthew Golden's emergence making it likely that fan-favorite Malik Heath will be cut. Quarterback Jordan Love faces a pivotal season as the Packers manage a transitional roster. Both the Steelers and Packers are navigating major team changes and high expectations ahead of the 2025 NFL season.
