Mike Tomlin and the Pittsburgh Steelers have received a crucial update regarding Aaron Rodgersâ physical condition. Despite signing late in the offseason, a report from Jeremy Fowler confirms that he is in good shape.
âReally, theyâre pumped now because they feel like Rodgers has remained in good shape despite being away from the team. They knew he had this personal matter he was dealing with. That was a big part of why this took a long time. The Steelers were giving him grace, respect and time to figure all that out. It looks like now heâs ready for football.â
This Saturday, Aaron Rodgers arrived in Pittsburgh to sign his contract and meet with general manager Omar Khan and head coach Mike Tomlin. Starting next Tuesday, the veteran will be at the teamâs mandatory minicamp.
Who will be the Steelersâ starting QB?
Aaron Rodgers will be the starting quarterback for the Pittsburgh Steelers next season, and Mason Rudolph will serve as the backup. Most likely, rookie Will Howard will be QB3 on the depth chart.
The star will sign a one-year contract, and the new deal is expected to be worth at $10 million guaranteed plus incentives. For several weeks, Rodgers had said that this wasnât about money.
