The NFL Draft is a handful of days away, and the Pittsburgh Steelers still don't know whether Aaron Rodgers will be returning in 2026.
We know the Steelers should find out from Rodgers one way or the other before the draft, so the clock is ticking. There are some who think he will be coming back for another season, others think retirement is on the horizon, but we don't have too long to wait.
In an ideal world, Rodgers would have let the Steelers know already, and privately, he might have, but for Pittsburgh star Cam Heyward, he isn't sure if the franchise will know Aaron's intentions before the draft.
"I don't know," Heyward said on the Rich Eisen Show. "But I think everybody is all in on him. For what we got to see this season, we were pleasantly surprised how great he was coming off of being on the Jets, to him just being a breath of fresh air of how he went about his business.
"Was accountable, held others accountable, loves the game, and just studies his [expletive] off. I haven't seen many guys to that level of just knowing the insides and outs of football."
