Aaron Rodgers has been coy about his future plans in the NFL -- and even the Pittsburgh Steelers may not know his next move.
Many NFL insiders have predicted that Rodgers will ultimately sign with the Steelers, who appear to be his last remaining option after other potential suitors line up quarterbacks for the coming season. But the former league MVP has not given any public indication on what he plans to do next.
NFL insider Tom Pelissero reported that Rodgers has also avoided any private indication to the Steelers about his plans. In an appearance on the "Rich Eisen Show," Pelissero reported that the Steelers have not heard anything from Rodgers.
Pelissero reported that Rodgers "has not affirmatively told the Steelers that he's coming," despite having a meeting with the team's brass earlier this offseason.
Rodgers still has time to make a decision, though ESPN's Adam Schefter suggested there could be a looming deadline.
"I think the Steelers' mandatory minicamp is next month," Schefter said . "Forget the exact date, roughly June 10. I would think that we would get a decision from Aaron Rodgers shortly before then about whether or not he should play. To me, you can't miss that mandatory minicamp where you start gearing up. I guess you can, but that's not ideal."
The Steelers may be left with little options if Rodgers does not decide to sign. The team brought back veteran Mason Rudolph, who is currently atop the depth chart.
