Rodgers' Steelers Return Uncertain, Draft Could Shake Things Up

0:00On April 21st, Aaron Rodgers still hasn't said if he's coming back to the Steelers for the 2026 season. Right now, Will Howard and Mason Rudolph are running the show at quarterback during the early off season workouts under new head coach Mike McCarthy. McCarthy made it clear on Tuesday that if Rodgers does return for his 22nd pro year, he won't need much time to shake off the rest. Their history together from the Packers days has McCarthy feeling good about Rodgers jumping right in. That familiarity gives Howard and Rudolph a real edge too, letting them build comfort with a new offensive scheme while they wait. This week's draft could shake things up if the Steelers grab another quarterback, and that might play into whatever Rodgers decides next. Keep an eye on how it all unfolds as the off season heats up.
