Aaron Rodgers’ Big Commitment Issues Continue as Mike Tomlin’s Steelers Accused of Botching QB Situation

There hasn’t been a single day this offseason when Rodgers wasn’t linked to the Steelers. However, in most instances, you would expect both parties to come to a resolution, but not in the case of Rodgers and the Steelers. While the latter remains optimistic in landing the veteran QB, their target is nowhere to be seen. With the Steelers’ 2025 season hanging in the balance without a proper field general, KeyShawn Johnson gave some respite to the Steelers.

“He’s going 100%. Do you think that Aaron Rodgers wants to hold them hostage and then leave them standing at the alter? I don’t,” Johnson said on Speak. He doesn’t seem to envision Rodgers ditching the Steelers at the very last moment. Johnson feels Rodgers “will be at OTAs” which starts on May 27th. So, Rodgers has basically 15 days to make Johnson’s prediction come true. If not, things could get ugly for the Steelers. Not having any experienced QB with a winning mentality could hurt the Steelers’ 2025 season from the very beginning.

The more the Steelers wait for Rodgers, the harder it will be for them to integrate him into their offense. Remember, this ain’t Green Bay or New York, where Rodgers can play with familiar faces. In Pittsburgh, things could be considerably harder for the 41-year-old to grasp at the get-go. That’s why the sooner he commits, the easier it will be for the Steelers to plan their next move.
