NFL News: Aaron Rodgers has reportedly made his final decision to play for Mike Tomlin and Steelers next season

Aaron Rodgers is ready to write a stunning new chapter in his legendary career. According to multiple reports, the future Hall of Famer has made his final decision, and it points straight to Pittsburgh. With Mike Tomlin at the helm and a talented roster around him, Rodgers could be the missing piece that turns the Steelers into instant contenders.

Aaron Rodgers has reportedly already made his final decision and, in the coming days, the quarterback is expected to announce his arrival to the Pittsburgh Steelers, according to a report by Mike Florio. As a result, his presence at the team’s training sessions could happen very soon.

ā€œThe Steelers only have six OTA days before the mandatory minicamp. Teams can have up to ten. I think he will be there next Tuesday, May 27, when the OTAs Phase 3, begins. That’s nine practices before training camp. That’s enough time to get him properly ensconced. I don’t know this, but, I think there’s going to be a press conference this week. And he’ll be there with the team next Tuesday. Rodgers hates Phase 1 and Phase 2 of the offseason program. He hates them.ā€

The Steelers have been very patient with the Super Bowl champion quarterback and are not going to change their stance just days before the famous mandatory minicamp. However, time is running out for Rodgers to adapt as quickly as possible to a new offense.

Who will be the next Steelers starting quarterback?

Aaron Rodgers will be the next starting quarterback for the Pittsburgh Steelers, according to multiple reports. Despite the player having been silent for over a month, that assumption has not changed, as everything indicates that the star does not want to retire.

If Rodgers surprisingly rejects the offer, Mason Rudolph would be the next option on the depth chart, ahead of rookie Will Howard and Skylar Thompson. In this scenario, general manager Omar Khan has warned that they would urgently look for a veteran quarterback, and that’s where the possibility of trade talks with Kirk Cousins could be activated.
