As the Aaron Rodgers free agency saga winds on and on, and the veteran signal caller continues to sit in sensory deprivation rooms or doing ayahuasca in between Pat McAfee Show segments, one interested party isn’t going to let the quarterback’s dallying impact their plans.
- Pittsburgh Steelers head coach Mike Tomlin told reporters on Tuesday that Rodgers won’t impact the teams plans in the 2025 NFL Draft, according to ESPN’s Brooke Pryor.
“It does not,” Tomlin said, when asked if Rodgers’ lack of decision alters Pittsburgh’s draft plans on Tuesday. But, the head coach noted that the draft could alter their free agency plans.
“I think what you do in the draft oftentimes affects maybe some talent acquisition that happens after,” Tomlin said. “We’ll see how the acquisition goes this weekend.”
