"I'm pretty sure that's how it will be. That's why I signed a one-year contract. What better place to finish than in one of the most important NFL franchises with Mike Tomlin and a great group of leaders and great players in a city that expects you to win?" the passer asserted on the Pat McAfee Show. Rodgers, who throughout 20 years in the NFL was champion in Super Bowl XLV with the Green Bay Packers, kept his continuity in the league in suspense until last June 6, when he signed a one-season contract with the Steelers, to play what he said would be his last season in the NFL. "The Steelers didn't need to add more years or anything. Yes, I'm pretty sure it's the end. The idea was to finish with a lot of love, fun, and peace. During my career, I played 20 years, it's been a very long career and I've enjoyed it," he asserted.

Rodgers on His Last Chance

Aaron Rodgers is considered one of the best 'quarterbacks' in the history of the NFL. He played 18 seasons (2005-2022) for the Green Bay Packers, the team that drafted him in the first round of the 2005 Draft. In 2023, he paralyzed the NFL market with his signing with the New York Jets, a team he joined with high expectations, but in his presentation in week 1 of that season, he tore his Achilles tendon and missed the rest of the season. Their recovery for 2024 maintained the optimism that the Jets would be contenders to be in the 'playoffs', but it all ended in a losing season of five wins and 12 losses. This Tuesday, Rodgers confirmed that his adventure in Pittsburgh will be the last in his career in which he has so far completed 5,369 passes for 62,952 yards, 503 touchdowns; he has suffered 116 interceptions. On the ground, he has 3,573 yards and 35 touchdowns.
