Aaron Rodgers has decided to return for one more season with the Pittsburgh Steelers, his last in the NFL. The move comes after the team made several key additions to the roster this offseason.
Rodgers confirmed his return earlier this week following a 10-win season in which the Steelers won the AFC North. He cited the team's offseason moves as a major factor in his decision, including the signing of wide receiver Michael Pittman Jr. and the drafting of Germie Bernard.
Initial reactions on X show excitement from Steelers fans celebrating the end of uncertainty around Rodgers' return, alongside skepticism from some about delaying the search for a long-term QB, the brutal schedule, and questions on whether it helps or hurts playoff chances.
What was the point of bringing him back? $23M for what? They should’ve found their QB of the future not bring back one well past his prime for anther .500 season. 🤦🏼
