Aaron Rodgers to sign with Pittsburgh Steelers: Here's what fantasy football managers should expect
Our Summary
Aaron Rodgers has officially signed with the Pittsburgh Steelers, reporting to their minicamp, marking a significant move in the NFL offseason. Rodgers is expected to provide an upgrade over the Steelers' previous quarterback options, Mason Rudolph and rookie Will Howard, though his recent performance ranks 23rd in adjusted yards per attempt over the past three years. The Steelers have struggled offensively since Ben Roethlisberger's retirement, ranking last in touchdown passes since 2022. Despite Rodgers' arrival, expectations for the team's overall success, including their playoff prospects and fantasy football potential, remain cautious. The article notes potential challenges, such as a clash between Rodgers' style and the offensive strategy, concerns about his physical decline, and the pressure on new acquisition DK Metcalf to perform in a run-heavy offense. Ultimately, Rodgers' signing removes uncertainty but doesn't drastically alter the outlook for the Steelers' upcoming season.
