Aaron Rodgers\u00a0has yet to make a decision on whether or not he’ll join the\u00a0Pittsburgh Steelers, but the team’s current No. 1 signal-caller doesn’t have time to worry about the former MVP’s next move.<\/p>\n

While many insiders believe Rodgers will eventually make it official and join the Steelers, he has yet to give any solid indication about his plans.<\/p>\n

That has left veteran\u00a0quarterback\u00a0Mason Rudolph as the team’s\u00a0top quarterback\u00a0at the start of voluntary practices this week.<\/p>\n

Speaking to reporters, Rudolph said he is used to uncertainty in the\u00a0NFL\u00a0and understands what is and isn’t in his control.<\/p>\n

\u201cThat\u2019s nothing new to me,”\u00a0Rudolph said, via the team’s official website. \u201cThere\u2019s been constant noise. That is the nature of the NFL. So I am used to that for a long time. Now I\u2019m doing nothing but being the best I can be to help our team get better this spring.\u201d<\/p>\n

Rudolph has been in some quarterback controversy in Pittsburgh before, starting in 2019 when he was benched in favor of Duck Hodges.<\/p>\n

Though his indecision has caused a bit of a distraction for Rudolph and the Steelers, one former NFL quarterback expects that Rodgers will end the waiting and sign soon.<\/p>\n

Matt Hasselbeck said on a recent episode of \u201cThe Herd” that there is no real other option for the former league MVP.<\/p>\n

\u201cAaron Rodgers is going to be with the Pittsburgh Steelers,” Hasselbeck said. “All this other talk about all these other teams\u2014it\u2019s not happening.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
