NFL insider confirms massive Aaron Rodgers rumor is real
On Thursday morning, a wild rumor dropped that Aaron Rodgers, on a whim, would be flying to Pittsburgh with the full intention of inking a contract and suiting up for the Pittsburgh Steelers in 2026. This was met with speculation, as Rodgers wasn't with the team ahead of the NFL Draft, and the team's OTAs don't start until May 18.
But a notable NFL insider just confirmed Adam Crowley's original report.
Just hours after the Rodgers rumor surfaced, NFL Network insider Ian Rapoport reiterated a similar report. The notable insider took to X with the following message for football fans.
"[Free Agent] QB Aaron Rodgers, who is expected to visit the Steelers Friday and this weekend, will likely play for them in 2026, sources say. A deal is not done & there is always caution until things are signed. But Rodgers' plan is to play for PIT & these are steps toward that end."
We don't know if Crowley and Rapoport have the same sources, but Rapoport is one of the most respected insiders in the business.
