NFL News: Aaron Rodgers makes something clear to Mike Tomlin about Steelers drafting a star quarterback

Aaron Rodgers has been involved in many rumors over the past few weeks. One of the strongest suggests that if the Pittsburgh Steelers draft a quarterback, he might reject them.

This was the star’s response to that theory during an interview with Pat McAfee when he was asked if the draft would affect his decision. ā€œNo. Not at all. I haven’t seen one draft prospect film.ā€

This means that if the Steelers draft Shedeur Sanders or Jaxson Dart in the first round, Rodgers would have no problem serving as a mentor as long as he has the opportunity to win the Super Bowl.

What will be Aaron Rodgers next team?

Aaron Rodgers still doesn’t know which team he’ll play for next, and in response to the pressure from the media and social networks, this was his answer when McAfee asked him how much time he spends thinking about football and his future in the game.

ā€œIt’s a small percentage, because the conversations have been had. There’s no more contemplation. I’m taking care of my people right now and I’m taking care of my personal life responsibilities. I’m keeping the conversation open as well.ā€
