- Big Ben makes bold prediction on Aaron Rodgers' future: 'I think this might be it for him'
Aaron Rodgers hasn't even unpacked in Pittsburgh — and Ben Roethlisberger is already predicting how it all ends.
On his podcast, Footbahlin with Ben Roethlisberger , the legendary Steelers QB shared why he believes 2025 may be Rodgers' last season in the NFL:

"I don't think he's got much more after this year," Roethlisberger said. "I think this might be it for him — personally. I have no reason — you could ask, 'Well how do you know?' I don't know. I'm just guessing in terms of you coming off an Achilles [tear]. Coming off my elbow [injury], my first year back I felt like I was 100. I wasn't even — you don't realize you're not 100 until the next year when you are 100."
Roethlisberger stated that Rodgers will feel healthier this season, but it doesn't necessarily mean he'll play better — before ultimately concluding his speculation on Rodgers' future:
"…He's going to feel better, but it doesn't mean that he's going to have two or three years left. I think this might be his last go."
If this truly is his last season — and this may be wishful thinking — here's to hoping Rodgers can lead the Steelers to their first playoff win since the 2016 season.
