US EditionMike Tomlin has no problem with Aaron Rodgers taking his time to decide whether he'll play in 2025
- On March 30, Mike Tomlin, head coach of the Pittsburgh Steelers, addressed the media at the NFL owner's meeting regarding the team's quarterback situation and their potential interest in free agent Aaron Rodgers.
- Following Ben Roethlisberger's retirement after the 2021 season, the Steelers have been seeking a long-term solution at quarterback, leading to high turnover at the position with several players on one-year deals in recent seasons.
- The Steelers met with four-time NFL MVP Aaron Rodgers for six hours earlier in March, and while Rodgers left without a deal, Tomlin described the visit as a positive experience focused on getting to know Rodgers better as a person and player.
- Tomlin stated, "We're optimistic about the room that we're constructing," emphasizing that the team is still exploring all options to improve their quarterback lineup, including the possibility of adding another free agent or drafting a quarterback, but he has no intention of putting Rodgers on a clock.
- Despite being linked to several teams, including the Giants who signed Russell Wilson and Jameis Winston, Rodgers, who is a free agent for the first time in his 20-year career, has not yet indicated whether he intends to continue playing football, leaving his future and the Steelers' quarterback plans uncertain.
