The quarter-Arrière had previously referred to the problems of his personal life during an interview on the “Pat McAfee Show” in April, for the reason why he had not signed with a team.
“I have a few people in my inner circle that fights against difficult things,” said Rodgers. “So, I have a lot that has attracted my attention and since the beginning of January of football. This is where I focus most of my attention.”

Several reports have linked Rodgers to the Pittsburgh Steelers, who currently have an opening of the quarter after losing Russell Wilson and Justin Fields this offseason and chose not to choose a better hoping of a quarter in the draft of this year’s NFL.
Rodgers recently visited the Steelers facilities, and several points of sale reported that he had met the team’s coaches. However, Rodgers has not yet decided to continue his career in the NFL in 2025 or to withdraw from the game all together, because he has not excluded retirement.
Journalist Ian O’Conner, who recently wrote the biography of Rodgers “Out of the Darkness: The Mystery of Aaron Rodgers,” said the quarterrière is in Pittsburgh.

“I just think verbally, behind the scenes, not that he guaranteed it, but we tell him [the Steelers]”Listen, I’m going to play for you. I just don’t want to go and then I miss a part of the mini-camp compulsory because of my personal problems. I’m pretty sure they will be resolved by the end of May, at least in my satisfaction where I can give you everything. This is where I think it is,” said O’Connor during a recent appearance on 93.7 The fan.
O’Conner then described the Steelers as the “perfect place” for Rodgers to end his career.
“He knows that it was a discomfort in New York largely, and he is the face of this embarrassment,” said O’Connor. “Whether right or not, it may be. It may be me as a optimist, but I think it will work. Will the Steelers win the Super Bowl next year? No. But if you told me 11-6 with at least one victory in the playoffs … I think it’s realistic.”
