On March 31, Steelers head coach Matt McCarthy says he's been chatting with Aaron Rogers every week or so, and those talks stay positive as they figure out next steps. Rogers, a free agent after his one-year deal expired in March, crushed it last season with 3,322 passing yards and 24 touchdowns. That run helped Pittsburgh snag the AFC North Crown and a wild car playoff spot before bowing out to Houston. McCarthy and Rogers go way back from 13 seasons together in Green Bay where they snag Super Bowl 45. Their convos cover life, football, and team updates, feeling just like old times. McCarthy calls Rogers engaged and in a good headspace right now. Fans and insiders see this as a real shot at reunion, given Rogers' veteran smart at age 42 after 21 NFL years. The Steelers want him back to build on that playoff push, leaning on their proven coach quarterback Bond. Talks could heat up over money though. Rogers signed for $13,600,000 last year,

With Rogers' career hall nearing $400 million, expect negotiations to drag a bit, but this duo linking up again could light up a creature. Stadia one more time.
