Ex-Steelers player questions team’s Aaron Rodgers pursuit: ‘We wouldn’t have tolerated this’

Former Pittsburgh Steelers safety Mike Logan says the past teams in the franchise’s history would have never tolerated Aaron Rodgers’ long wait.

“These teams are a little different than we we had. We wouldn’t have tolerated this. We would’ve been like, ‘Yo, are you coming or not. You know what I mean?’ Can you imagine Joey Porter sitting there in the locker room and we don’t have a quarterback, and we’re trying to figure this out? We wouldn’t have tolerated that,” Logan said on the ‘Kaboly + Mack Podcast.’

On the Pat McAfee Show in April, Rodgers said he would not sign a deal with a team until he felt he could fully commit to them with his personal life in order.

In his latest interview on the Joe Rogan Experience, Rodgers may have just revealed and hinted at the issues he hopes to resolve in his personal life.

Rodgers said multiple people in his life are dealing with serious illnesses, including cancer.

“I’ve figured it out during the last year when I’ve been in the weeds with these people who are close to me that have cancer,” Rodgers said.

That is taking a personal toll on Rodgers, who discussed non-conventional treatment options on the podcast. Still, he offered no certain timetable for a decision and seemed focused on his personal life first before anything else.

The Steelers have given no timeline to Rodgers by all indications, and they continue to wait for a final decision from the four-time MVP.
