Aaron Rodgers rules out Saints in NFL free agency as suitors dwindle in ongoing saga
Our Summary
Aaron Rodgers, the four-time NFL MVP and free agent, has ruled out joining the New Orleans Saints despite speculation following Derek Carr's retirement. During a Q&A in Austin, Texas, he humorously dismissed the idea, citing age and location preferences. This aligns with reports that the Saints weren't seriously considering him. Instead, Rodgers hinted at a move to the Pittsburgh Steelers, noted for their potential interest and upcoming game in Chicago, which he cryptically referenced. While the Steelers' owner is patient for Rodgers' decision, which has been delayed due to personal matters, the quarterback's choice is crucial for their playoff prospects, especially after acquiring DK Metcalf. Rodgers last played for the Jets with moderate success during a disappointing season.
