There was a major development in the Pittsburgh Steelers’ pursuit of four-time NFL MVP quarterback Aaron Rodgers on March 21, as Pittsburgh Post-Gazette insider Gerry Dulac reported the following.
“BREAKING: Aaron Rodgers is at the Steelers facility today, an indication a deal with the team could be forthcoming, per sources,” the veteran reporter relayed on X.
Dulac then quickly clarified that “sources have cautioned a commitment from Rodgers may not come today, if at all, and he is just visiting with coach Mike Tomlin and general manager Omar Khan.”
This news was also confirmed by multiple NFL insiders, including ESPN’s Adam Schefter — who reiterated that “no deal at this time is close, per source.”
While NFL Network insider Tom Pelissero noted: “No deal is done or imminent. But Rodgers spent time with coaches — another sign he’s seriously considering playing his 21st season in Pittsburgh.”
Finally, The Athletic’s Dianna Russini weighed in, stating: “The plan in Pittsburgh is for Aaron Rodgers to visit with Steelers coaches. Pittsburgh has kept its offer open to the four-time MVP, and one source says ‘it’s possible an agreement is reached today.’”
As you can see, there are varying reports on whether or not Rodgers will sign with the Steelers — either today, or in general — but either way, this is a huge step in the right direction for Pittsburgh. With Rodgers in the building, they can now pitch their case and get a better sense of if the former superstar QB is a viable option or not.
THIS IS A DEVELOPING STORY. MORE TO COME.
