Aaron Rodgers has officially joined the Pittsburgh Steelers for the 2025 NFL season, signing a one-year contract valued at $13.65 million. In his public statements, Rodgers emphasized the importance of making career decisions based on his personal satisfaction rather than ego. He expressed enthusiasm about working with head coach Mike Tomlin and the team. After exploring conversations with multiple teams, he revealed that the Steelers were his only real option, driven by both personal connections and challenges he faced recently, which have since improved.
This was a decision that was best for my soul and I felt like being here with coach [Mike Tomlin] and the guys that got here, and the opportunity here was the best for me and I'm excited to be here.
There were conversations with other organizations, for sure, but the rapport that fell in between me and Mike made it to where, as I was going through my personal stuff, there wasn't any other option for me. It was here or not play.
