It appears that the latest drama surrounding Aaron Rodgers and his playing status for the 2026 NFL season is finally on the verge of ending.
NFL Network national insider Ian Rapoport reported Thursday morning on the latest update regarding Rodgers and the Pittsburgh Steelers . "FA QB Aaron Rodgers, who is expected to visit the Steelers Friday and this weekend, will likely play for them in 2026, sources say. A deal is not done & there is always caution until things are signed.
But Rodgers’ plan is to play for PIT & these are steps toward that end," Rapoport posted on Bluesky. "While the Steelers gave Rodgers the UFA tender, that’s considered a placeholder. Hard to imagine he plays for $15M, which is why a deal must be worked out and finalized.
But finality is coming soon, sources say. " Steelers linebacker Patrick Queen said in April that he gave Rodgers' potential return to Pittsburgh this fall a "50-50" chance . It was then reported that the four-time MVP wasn't expected to give the Steelers his decision until after the NFL Draft .
