It's March 29th. Welcome to NFL News Today, powered by AI, I'm Kory with the story. The Pittsburgh Steelers are staring down a thin quarterback market this offseason with a weak draft class and slim free agent pickings that leaves them circling back to Aaron Rodgers as their top option, but only if the future Hall of Famer wants in for another go. No clear signals yet from Rodgers or the team on a reunion. The hire of Mike McCarthy as coach sparked some buzz since he coach Rodgers to success in Green Bay. A Pittsburgh Post Gazette analyst figures will get an answer right around the NFL draft time. This limbo hits hard because the Steelers host the draft and pack a ton of picks across all seven rounds. They might tweak their whole strategy, maybe trade up for prospect they like, but without Rodgers' word, it's tough to commit draft capital at the position. Meanwhile, this is in fresh drama for Pittsburgh. Last year, Rodgers dragged his feet on the decision until just before training camp, forcing

the team into the same uncertain spot. As the draft nears, all eyes stay locked on Rodgers to see if he tips his hand and clears the path for the Steelers next move.
