Michael Pittman Jr. didn’t discuss football in recent conversation with Aaron Rodgers

Even at age-42, Rodgers would likely give the Steelers the best chance at that. The NFL Draft begins on Thursday, and while Pittsburgh would like an answer on Rodgers’ future, it seems uncertain he will be giving the team one before then.

Pittman Jr. said he’s going to give Rodgers his space and allow him to make his own decision, but would love to have the four-time MVP throwing him the football in 2026.

"Just giving him his space and his time and and if he decides to come back, then that's great, we would love him back," Pittman, Jr. said. "Obviously, I think he might be the current player who's done the most in the NFL. He's a four-time MVP. I think that his resume speaks for itself, and obviously there’s his long-standing history with coach (Mike) McCarthy, so we'll see what happens."

Will Howard is currently taking the starting quarterback reps for the Steelers in offseason work.
