Aaron Rodgers is taking his time deciding whether to join the Pittsburgh Steelers, but the four-time NFL MVP is thorough in his evaluation process. Recently, he conducted a throwing session with new Steelers receiver DK Metcalf at UCLA.
This move is part of a series of box-checking steps for Rodgers, who met with the team 10 days ago in Pittsburgh. According to Steelers head coach Mike Tomlin, their meeting was productive and helped build rapport between the two parties.
Tomlin praised the get-to-know-you session, saying it allowed them to establish a connection in a non-competitive environment. However, he declined to provide any new updates on Rodgers’ decision timeline, stating that he’s comfortable with the current uncertainty.
The Steelers will have their organized team activities start later this year, which gives Rodgers time to continue working out with Pittsburgh players like Metcalf. If he chooses to join Tomlin’s crew, being ahead of the game could be beneficial for his decision-making process.
