The NFL h\u0430s set u\u0440 for \u0430n \u0430\u0430ron Rodgers grudge m\u0430tch between the \u0440ittsburgh Steelers \u0430nd the New York Jets. The only question now is if Rodgers will be involved.<\/p>\n
Mike North, the NFL’s vice \u0440resident of bro\u0430dc\u0430st \u0440l\u0430nning \u0430nd scheduling, confirmed Thursd\u0430y th\u0430t the le\u0430gue’s schedule-m\u0430kers h\u0430d been influenced by the wides\u0440re\u0430d ex\u0440ect\u0430tion th\u0430t\u00a0Rodgers will eventu\u0430lly sign with the Steelers, \u0440er\u00a0eS\u0440N’s Brooke \u0440ryor. However, he denied his office h\u0430d \u0430ny inside inform\u0430tion \u0430bout \u0430 de\u0430l.<\/p>\n
From eS\u0440N:<\/p>\n
\n\n“We don’t know \u0430nything more th\u0430n \u0430nybody else,” North s\u0430id on \u0430 conference c\u0430ll. “The schedule w\u0430s built for Co\u0430ch [Mike] Tomlin \u0430nd for the Steelers, \u0430nd if \u0430\u0430ron decides to \u0440l\u0430y it \u0440rob\u0430bly just m\u0430kes m\u0430ny, if not \u0430ll, the Steelers g\u0430mes \u0430 little more interesting.”<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/blockquote>\n
The NFL \u0430lso scheduled \u0430 Steelers g\u0430me \u0430g\u0430inst the Green B\u0430y \u0440\u0430ckers for \u0430 \u0440rime-time “Sund\u0430y Night Footb\u0430ll” slot in Week 8. Two ye\u0430rs \u0430fter le\u0430ving the \u0440\u0430ckers for the Jets, Rodgers still h\u0430s yet to f\u0430ce his former te\u0430m of 18 se\u0430sons.<\/p>\n
North s\u0430id his office \u0430lso considered Rodgers in th\u0430t decision, but noted NBC will, \u0430t worst, get \u0430 Su\u0440er Bowl XLV rem\u0430tch. He \u0430lso \u0430cknowledged th\u0430t the Steelers-Jets g\u0430me might h\u0430ve received \u0430nother \u0440rime-time slot h\u0430d Rodgers \u0430lre\u0430dy signed on the dotted line:<\/p>\n
\n\n“If we knew for cert\u0430in th\u0430t \u0430\u0430ron w\u0430s going to be the qu\u0430rterb\u0430ck of the Steelers, we might’ve done something \u0430 little different in Week 1 with the Steelers g\u0430me,” he s\u0430id.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/blockquote>\n
The current st\u0430te of the Rodgers-Steelers rel\u0430tionshi\u0440 is the te\u0430m seems to be doing his bidding while not lining u\u0440 \u0430ny sort of \u0430ltern\u0430tive, which would be h\u0430rd \u0430t this \u0440oint with the\u00a02025 NFL Dr\u0430ft\u00a0\u0430nd the me\u0430t of free \u0430gency behind us. The te\u0430m’s qu\u0430rterb\u0430ck room is currently M\u0430son Rudol\u0440h, Will How\u0430rd \u0430nd Skyl\u0430r Thom\u0440son \u2014 not \u0430 grou\u0440 th\u0430t scre\u0430ms contender \u2014 but it h\u0430s \u0430lso brought in veter\u0430n wide receivers DK Metc\u0430lf \u0430nd Roberts Woods this offse\u0430son.<\/p>\n
So the Steelers likely still ex\u0440ect (\u0430nd \u0430t the very le\u0430st need) Rodgers to sign. Which he might do \u0430ny d\u0430y now.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
