Aaron Rodgers and his possible outcome with the Pittsburgh Steelers remains the biggest story heading into NFL training camp. According to a report by Adam Schefter, the quarterback will end up playing for Mike Tomlin, reiterating that the schedule could be a key factor in convincing him.

“I think he winds up in Pittsburgh, but, we still have not heard one word from him about when that might be. I think the next two weeks are on the clock. Pittsburgh plays Green Bay and Detroit. There’s some attractive matchups and, Minnesota, the team that was not interested enough in Aaron Rodgers to bring him in over a guy like Sam Howell.”

Rodgers has two options: try to win one last Super Bowl with the Steelers or retire, considering that the Minnesota Vikings are not interested in signing him. Virtually all teams have already filled their vacancies at the quarterback position.

Will Aaron Rodgers sign with Pittsburgh Steelers or retire?

Aaron Rodgers is close to signing with the Pittsburgh Steelers, according to multiple reports. However, due to issues within his inner circle, the quarterback has not committed to signing with any team.

Retirement is a possible option if the Pittsburgh project doesn’t convince him, understanding that other teams like the Giants, Rams, or Vikings don’t need a starting quarterback. A less likely path would be to wait for another player’s injury in hopes of an emergency call from a contender.
