Aaron Rodgers finally appears to have taken a step toward deciding where — and whether — he will play football in 2025. Rodgers reportedly visited the Pittsburgh Steelers’ facility on Friday.
Tom Pelissero of ESPN wrote:
No deal is done or imminent. But Rodgers spent time with coaches — another sign he’s seriously considering playing his 21st season in Pittsburgh.
Pittsburgh Post-Gazette Steelers beat write Gerry Dulac was the first to report the visit. Dulac added that “ Sources have cautioned a commitment from Rodgers may not come today, if at all.”
Dulac said that Rodgers visited with Steelers coach Mike Tomlin and GM Omar Khan.
This is the first word on movement from Rodgers, one of several veteran quarterbacks the New York Giants have been considering, in a couple of weeks.
Giants ‘remain involved’
The #Steelers and Aaron Rodgers have had contract parameters in place for weeks, sources say, and money wasn’t a discussion point during today’s visit. It was a chance for both sides to get to know each other.

Rodgers, 41, reportedly had interest in joining the Minnesota Vikings. The Vikings, though, have said they will commit to J.J. McCarthy at quarterback and will not pursue a Rodgers signing — at least not now.
That leaves the Steelers and Giants as the known suitors for Rodgers.
The Giants have hosted Russell Wilson, Joe Flacco and Jameis Winston for visits. Wilson is believed to be willing to sign with the Giants. Winston expressed an interest in doing so while attending the Super Bowl.
