Steelers GM Says He Expects a Faster Aaron Rodgers Resolution This Year

Steelers GM Omar Khan expects Aaron Rodgers to decide on playing in 2026 earlier than last year, avoiding another delayed decision after Rodgers' 42-year-old season.

  • At the combine, Steelers GM Omar Khan said the team expects a quicker decision on Aaron Rodgers' return, aiming to avoid last year's delay.
  • After his Jets release, Rodgers met with the Vikings before they chose J.J. McCarthy, and the Steelers want a quicker decision to avoid last year's delay, Khan said.
  • Rodgers, 42, posted last season's stat line showing 3,332 yards, 24 touchdowns, and seven interceptions, but he struggled with a playoff pick-six against the Texans; one more season with McCarthy could change that.
  • The Steelers have no firm deadline, Khan said, and they continue searching for a franchise quarterback while staying eager to work with Will Howard.
  • Despite winning the AFC North at 10-7, the Steelers face emotional stakes after Mike Tomlin's departure; the team wants a quicker decision on Rodgers' return, Khan said.
