What Steelers Offense Looks Like Following Aaron Rodgers Signing

At long last, the Pittsburgh Steelers and Aaron Rodgers have a deal. The 41-year-old quarterback is set to sign a one-year contract on Friday and will take the field with his new team next Tuesday for mandatory minicamp.
It's been an attrition-filled offseason in the Steel City, as their other signal callers signed elsewhere, a wide receiver was traded, and their bellcow running back for the last four seasons decided to head west. They did, however, also acquire DK Metcalf from the Seattle Seahawks in a blockbuster move.
So what will the Steelers' re-shaped offense look like with Rodgers at the helm? Here's a glance at each skill position room:
