Aaron Rodgers has nothing to do with the Pittsburgh Steelers passing on Colorado QB Shedeur Sanders. Or any of the other top passers of the 2025 NFL Draft. Joining Steelers Nation Radio Friday, Owner Art Rooney II said the decision to focus on defensive line over quarterback was a decision made independent of Rodgers’ looming status.
“No, we really did not factor whether Aaron’s coming or not into that,” Rooney said when asked by Mike Prisuta about the team’s thought process. “I mean, look, if we draft a quarterback and we still might, it’s probably not somebody that’s gonna start for us this year.
