“Mike Tomlin Hints at Game-Changing Deal: Is Aaron Rodgers Eyeing Steel City?”

In the swirling haze of the NFL off-season, few storylines capture the imagination quite like the potential of a superstar quarterback finding a new home. Amidst the backdrop of the league meetings in Palm Beach, Steelers head coach Mike Tomlin has found himself at the center of a buzzworthy narrative involving none other than four-time MVP Aaron Rodgers. Confirming a recent visit to Pittsburgh by Rodgers, Tomlin described their meeting as a “really good day,” hinting at the allure of the possibility of adding such a talent to the Steelers’ lineup. But while enthusiasm mounts, Tomlin remains measured, emphasizing the ongoing nature of free agency and the variety of options the team continues to explore at quarterback. With some fresh faces like Mason Rudolph and Skylar Thompson onboard, and the draft looming, all eyes are on how this intriguing drama will unfold. As the stakes get higher and the clock ticks, the anticipation for where Rodgers might land in 2025 intensifies. Will Pittsburgh seize this golden opportunity, or will the waiting game stretch on even longer? LEARN MORE.

Mason Rudolph and Skylar Thompson have both signed with the team since the end of the 2024 season while Russell Wilson, Justin Fields, and Kyle Allen have all signed with other teams. Wilson signed with the Giants, which took the NFC East club off the board as a possible landing spot for Rodgers. Unless the Vikings revisit their current course, that appears to leave the Steelers as Rodgers’s best chance to start in 2025 but it seems everyone’s willing to keep playing the waiting game a little longer. Tomlin confirmed that Rodgers visited the team’s facility in Pittsburgh earlier this month to discuss the possibility of joining the Steelers. Tomlin said that it was a “really good day,” but didn’t shed much other light on where things sit with the four-time NFL MVP. Tomlin said there’s no deadline in place for the team to sign Rodgers or any other quarterback. He said the team is going to continue evaluating options at the position in both free agency and the draft — they’re reportedly set to meet with Jaxson Dart of Ole Miss — for the time being. “It was really good to spend some time together man and get to know each other more intimately, but it is free agency,” Tomlin said, via Brooke Pryor of ESPN.com.” It is a process. I have nothing of any more significance to add other than that.”Steelers head coach Mike Tomlin spoke to reporters from the league meetings in Palm Beach on Sunday and the team’s conversations with Aaron Rodgers were a lead topic.
