🏈 Colin Cowherd of FS1 thinks the Pittsburgh Steelers look foolish waiting for Aaron Rodgers to make a decision.
"The Giants and Steelers have backed themselves into a corner. The Giants have been reaching on quarterbacks, and the Steelers have been ignoring the position until it's late in free agency for a long time. These two are being willingly detained," Cowherd said.
"The Steelers lack of urgency at quarterback and tone-deaf sensibility to offense is their problem."

🏈 Albert Breer of Sports Illustrated doesn't think money is the issue with Aaron Rodgers.
"I don't think money is the issue right now. I think it really comes down to what Aaron Rodgers wants to do," Breer said. "Considering all of his options. Those options could include retirement. I wouldn't completely rule that out although he did tell the Jets in his exit meeting that he intends to play in 2025. Certainly he wouldn't be seeking his release from the Jets if it weren't for having some desire to play. I don't think you can rule out anything."
Albert Breer added that Aaron Rodgers could be the missing piece for the Steelers.
"With the Steelers it's different as they're asking him to come in and be the final piece to the puzzle and there are more contemporaries of Rodgers there. T.J. Watt is turning 31. Minkah Fitzpatrick is turning 29. Cam Heyward , obviously he's an older player at the end of his career and they with some urgency already this offseason by going in and bringing DK Metcalf into the fold," Breer said. "The reality of it to me at this situation I think the Giants would be asking him to do again a lot of what the Jets were asking him to do. Does that appeal to him? Maybe?"
