Aaron Rodgers has not agreed to play for the Pittsburgh Steelers. Despite this uncertain situation, Mike Tomlin could have a starting quarterback ready inside the building in case the veteran rejects the team.
āWe like Mason Rudolph, but thatās no secret. I think thatās why we reacquired him, man. I donāt know if we are identifying anything as Plan A, Plan B or Plan C. Weāre just simply looking at the field of available people, whether itās free agency or the draft and making decisions. Gathering information accordingly.ā
The only option left for Rodgers, instead of the Steelers, is the Minnesota Vikings. However, if the former Super Bowl champion doesnāt hurry, he could end up without a team, which could lead to a possible retirement.
Who will be Steelersā starting quarterback?
Mason Rudolph would be the starting quarterback for the Steelers if Aaron Rodgers rejects the offer made by Pittsburgh. For Mike Tomlin, there is no rush, as he assures that there is still plenty of time left.
āIn the spring, itās about teaching and learning. Getting familiar with players and making sure theyāre getting familiar with some of the things that we value. Itās not an evaluation time of the year for us. Itās certainly not a time of the year where weāre focused on readying ourselves for game action. Certainly, training camp would kind of be a line of demarcation in terms of that discussion (Rodgersā final decision). The springās about teaching and learning.ā
