A saga that’s been building since January just got a bit closer to ending. Aaron Rodgers finished the 2025 season with the Pittsburgh Steelers, alluding to it possibly being his last. However, he neither confirmed nor denied whether he was going to make a decision, while the team quietly planned around him. But it looks like the veteran quarterback is finally breaking his silence.

On May 7th’s edition of The Fan Morning Show on 93.7 The Fan, Dorin Dickerson and Adam Crowley reported that Rodgers is traveling to Pittsburgh, and that a re-signing is expected sometime this weekend.

The Steelers are no strangers to this situation. Last offseason, before Rodgers signed in June, similar reports circulated in the days leading up to his decision. A fan had called in at the time to report that he’d seen Rodgers exiting an unnamed hotel, sparking speculations of a signing. This year, the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette had already reported the Steelers wanted an answer by May 18, the start of their OTAs. And judging by the latest reports, Rodgers is getting there just ahead of it.

Now, Rodgers is the four-time MVP quarterback coming off a Wild Card exit at 42. The alternative depth in the Steelers’ QB room features Will Howard, 3rd round rookie Drew Allar, and Mason Rudolph. Howard has spent the majority of the last season on the bench, reeling from a hand injury, and learning from Rodgers. Allar himself is currently questionable with a season-ending ankle injury he suffered at Penn State last October. Rudolph is the only one with any kind of starting experience among them all.
