NFL – Pittsburgh Steelers apparently send clear message to starting quarterback Aaron Rodgers

Will Aaron Rodgers continue? If so, will he stay in Pittsburgh? The Steelers’ management wants answers to these questions. According to one report, they want them quickly.

The Pittsburgh Steelers don’t want to wait. They want to plan.

That’s why there’s apparently a clear message to quarterback Aaron Rodgers: the legendary playmaker must decide whether he will continue in the NFL. And if so, will he continue with the Steelers?

Rodgers left his future open after the clear playoff exit in the Wild Card Round against the Houston Texans.

“Our Steelers insider Jeff Hathorn says that Omar Khan let Aaron Rodgers know that a decision is needed within a month,” wrote Andrew Fillipponi of “937thefan” on ‘X’: “So before the start of free agency. That’s a significant difference from last year.” At that time, the Steelers gave the 42-year-old significantly more time.

What could make Rodgers’ decision easier: Following Mike Tomlin’s resignation, Mike McCarthy is the Steelers’ new head coach.

Steelers: McCarthy wants Rodgers back

The two know each other from their 13 years of working together with the Green Bay Packers. Together, they won a Super Bowl.

And McCarthy “definitely” wants to work with Rodgers in Pittsburgh, as he emphasized at a press conference. “I don’t know why I wouldn’t want him back. I’ve seen the games and he was a great asset to the team,” explained the 62-year-old. He wants to give Rodgers time: “It’s important that players like this take time off after a painful season. The last game was very emotional.” But Rodgers can’t wait too long.
