Florio: Steelers, Mike Tomlin’s Interest In Aaron Rodgers Is A ‘Desperate Attempt’ To Delay The ‘Boom’ In Pittsburgh

Every Pittsburgh Steelers fan was disappointed by the way the 2024 season ended. Many still feel fed up, feeling that the franchise is too stuck in its own ways and unwilling to adapt. That mindset, they argue, is the reason Pittsburgh can’t find a way to advance in the playoffs anymore. Mike Tomlin’s done a tremendous job in Pittsburgh, but it’s a hurdle he’s been unable to jump past during the last decade.

Given that, it was surprising when the Steelers made the splash trade for DK Metcalf. Their interest in Aaron Rodgers, seemingly led by Tomlin, has also turned some heads.
