The Steelers awaited Aaron Rodgers all the offseason. This is why it was a big problem on Thursday when Rodgers joined the Pat McAfee show, speaking of its free situation for the first time since the start of the new year of the League. Friday, the initiate of the Steelers Gerry Dulac joined the Rich Eisen Show and talked about the offer of the contract that the Steelers have on the table for Rodgers.
“Their offer has not changed,” said Dulac. “It is on the table. It is a year’s agreement. I cannot tell you exactly what the number is, but it is not something that will breathe someone. They are essentially waiting for them to make the decision. And they are ready to wait. But all that he said yesterday was not surprising for the steelers.”
Money does not seem to be a problem for Rodgers. He won a ton through his career, as a player who won four NFL MVP prizes. Rodgers even said so much in his interview yesterday, saying that he would play for $ 10 million.
This amount is reasonable for Rodgers. He did not have a bad year in 2024, but compared to the rest of his career, he ranked as one of his worst statistical seasons. This and the fact that he will be 42 years old during the 2025 season allows you to easily see why a team would not want to get financial towards him.
Currently, the Steelers seem to be the only team ready to make a kind of commitment to him. There were rumors about Rodgers and the Vikings of Minnesota throughout the offseason. Rodgers mentioned those during his interview, but nothing of what he said has pointed out to him with them this offseason. However, he spoke favorably about his meeting with the Steelers, as well as his training with their new star receiver, DK Metcalf.
The Steelers had a cheap quarter-Arrière room last year. Based on the comments of Dulac, as well as Rodgers on Thursday, it seems that they follow the same action plan. Rodgers would be another inexpensive veteran signature, and the Steelers hope that it will work better this year than with Russell Wilson if this happens.
