Released by the New York Jets in March 2025 after a lackluster 5-12 season, Rodgers, 41, became the most coveted free agent quarterback. Known for his flair for drama, he kept teams guessing, delaying his decision for months. The Pittsburgh Steelers, desperate for a proven-signal caller, waited patiently despite drafting Ohio State&rsquo;s Will Howard in the sixth round (No. 185 overall). Rodgers&rsquo; prolonged consideration, including a visit to Pittsburgh earlier, left the Steelers&rsquo; quarterback room, featuring Mason Rudolph and Skylar Thompson, in a limbo. Finally, just before minicamp, Rodgers signed a one-year $13.65 million deal, bringing his NFL experience to a franchise, hungry for playoff success. <\/p><p>Now in Pittsburgh, Rodgers is already making an impact, not just as the starting quarterback but also as a mentor to rookie QB Will Howard. The former Ohio State national champion, who went 14-2 in his lone season with the Buckeyes, is soaking up knowledge from the future Hall of Famer. Rodgers&rsquo; early interactions with Howard during minicamp signals a promising mentor-mentee dynamic, with the veteran sharing insights to refine the young quarterback&rsquo;s skills.<\/p><figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-rich is-provider-twitter wp-block-embed-twitter\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\" data-width=\"500\" data-dnt=\"true\"><p lang=\"en\" dir=\"ltr\">BREAKING: Aaron Rodgers to sign 1-year deal with Steelers ahead of next week's minicamp.
