The Steelers Might Bring Aaron Rodgers Back… And That’s a Problem

The Pittsburgh Steelers may not be done with Aaron Rodgers just yet. During a recent interview with Steelers GM Omar Khan, it sounded like the door is still open for Aaron Rodgers to return in 2026 after his 2025 season in Pittsburgh. While the experience with Rodgers was described as “great,” the big question remains: Do the Steelers actually have a long-term plan at quarterback? In this video, we break down: • What Omar Khan said about Aaron Rodgers’ future • Why bringing Rodgers back could mean more of the same for Pittsburgh • The biggest limitations in Rodgers’ game at this stage of his career • Why the Steelers might be stuck in NFL “purgatory” (9–8 / 10–7 seasons) • Possible QB alternatives like reclamation projects or trade targets • Whether Pittsburgh should finally reset the QB position Rodgers still has moments of greatness, but at 42–43 years old the reality is different. The Steelers have to decide whether to chase one more run with a veteran or finally build toward the future. So what should Pittsburgh do? Should the Steelers bring Aaron Rodgers back for 2026, roll with Will Howard, or look for a new quarterback entirely?
