Steelers checking on Rodgers
Fresh off acquiring wide receiver D.K. Metcalf from theSeattle Seahawks, the Pittsburgh Steelers continue to explore ways to revamp their offence and are reportedly considering former New York Jets quarterback Aaron Rodgers.
ESPN's Adam Schefter reports that Pittsburgh will continue talks with Russell Wilson and Justin Fields but that the four-time MVP has also emerged as an option.
Rodgers, 41, is set to become a free agent after the Jets announced he would be released after two disappointing seasons in New York. The team finished 5-12 last year, second last in the AFC East. The 10-time Pro Bowler passed for 3,897 yards and 28 touchdowns.
The Steelers finished 10-7 last season and were eliminated by the Baltimore Ravens in the Wild Card round of the playoffs.
Fields, who the Steelers acquired in a trade last offseason, remains in talks with both Pittsburgh and the Jets. He started six games for the Steelers last season before Wilson took over the the remainder of the season.
