Last summer, Aaron Rodgers was soaking up the Egyptian sun while his Jets teammates sweated through minicamp drills. The trip, a bucket-list adventure planned during his Achilles rehab, clashed with the team’s schedule, leading to an “unexcused” absence and a hefty fine. Rodgers downplayed the incident, likening minicamp to glorified OTAs, but the media frenzy and internal team tensions suggested otherwise. It was a moment that left fans and pundits questioning his commitment.
Fast forward to this year, and the minicamp narrative takes a surprising twist. Instead of controversy, there’s anticipation—not in New York, but in Pittsburgh. The Steelers, having navigated their own quarterback uncertainties, now find themselves at the center of attention. As minicamp approaches, the buzz isn’t about absences but arrivals, signaling a potential new chapter for both Rodgers and the Steelers.
On Thursday, it was reported that the four-time MVP informed Mike Tomlin and Co. that he will fly to the Steel City and will sign a deal with ’em ahead of the mandatory minicamp next week. Yup, you read that right. Loud and clear. After months of speculation of a potential deal and verbal agreements, Rodgers is reportedly set to sign a deal with the Steelers.
BREAKING: Aaron Rodgers has informed the Steelers he plans to sign a contract and attend mini camp next week, per sources.
