AFC North News: Pittsburgh Steelers Eyeing Future Hall of Famer Aaron Rodgers After DK Metcalf Trade

CINCINNATI — Aaron Rodgers could be coming to the AFC North.

The future Hall of Fame quarterback "has emerged as a quarterback option in Pittsburgh" according to ESPN's Adam Schefter.

"Rodgers and the Steelers are expected to talk and explore a union," Schefter tweeted. "The idea of Rodgers playing for Mike Tomlin is in play."

The Steelers traded for DK Metcalf on Sunday. Adding a proven veteran quarterback that can get both Metcalf and George Pickens the ball would make sense.

It would also completely shift the AFC North. With Myles Garrett signing a long-term deal with Cleveland and Pittsburgh tweaking their offense, the AFC North could easily be the NFL's top division again in 2025.

Schefter also noted that the Steelers are talking to Justin Fields and Russell Wilson.

Meanwhile, all eyes are on the Cincinnati Bengals. Will they sign Tee Higgins and/or Ja'Marr Chase before the negotiating window opens on Monday at Noon ET?

Steelers continue talking to Justin Fields and Russell Wilson, but…Aaron Rodgers has emerged as a quarterback option in Pittsburgh, per league sources.
