Report: Steelers are close to a deal with four-time MVP Aaron Rodgers

[Yo_Mama_Been_Loggin]

While DK Metcalf to the Pittsburgh Steelers set the NFL world ablaze, Aaron Rodgers to the Steel City would arguably push the insanity even further—and one insider believes the Black and Gold faithful should buckle up for a shocking free agency signing announcement.

According to Gerry Dulac, in a now-deleted tweet, the Pittsburgh Steelers are close to a deal with Rodgers. Dulac explained that once Justin Fields made his desire to test free agency known, Sam Darnold and Rodgers became the next quarterback options:

"The Steelers are getting close to a deal with four-time NFL MVP Aaron Rodgers, per multiple sources. They decided to enter discussions with Rodgers and Sam Darnold when it became apparent Justin Fields wanted to test his value in the free-agent market."

Rodgers would be the most polarizing choice, with nearly half of the Steelers fanbase wishing he would retire, while the other half would be eager to welcome the four-time MVP to Pittsburgh.

1. NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOooooooooooooo

4. Agreed. Bringing that huge ego into you locker room is asking for trouble.

And WTF? He's 40-something. The Steelers need to be signing a QB for the nest fer year, not an old one who might get thru one year.

5. I was starting to like the Steelers with Russell Wilson.

2. Well that's one "lucky charm," I think they will come to regret...

3. Word on the street is that they HAVE reached out to Mason Rudolph to return

what role, either starting or back-up is unspecified.

9. Oh, gawd no.

[mikewv]

6. Please no

If this happens, it will be very hard for me to root for my beloved Steelers! Please tell me this a rumor that won't happen!

[brush]

7. The Steelers haven't had a servicable QB since Big Been. What abot the Duck guy?

What was his name?

[PittBlue]

10. Whose brilliant idea is this?

I have been a life long Steeler fan but screw that if they sign him.

[Charlie Chapulin]

8. Ummm, the Steelers

(pronounced Stillers, as a Pittsburgh friend taught me) actually wear Black and Mustard Yellow.
The New Orleans Saints wear Black and Gold.

[PittBlue]

11. What a stupid, stupid idea.

I will have a lot of free time next fall if they do.

12. Are Trump and Musk in charge of the Stillers?

[True Dough]

13. Pittsburgh, Phil Collins and Genesis have a lyrical message for you:

[tishaLA]

14. Rodgers playing for the liberal Rooney family

What could go wrong?

[Auggie]

15. I'll surmise they want him to help mentor a young 'un

[Hokie]

16. I am all for it as a Browns fan

We will love the company at the bottom of the AFC Central.

17. A-Ron is bringing his Jets magic to the Steelers. We'll see how that works.

I’m not sure how his teabagger/magat beliefs will work in Pittsburgh.
