Big Ben says 'new door' opened for Aaron Rodgers beyond the Steelers.
Following Derek Carr's possible season-ending shoulder injury, rumors of Aaron Rodgers joining the New Orleans Saints started to circulate. Although insider Ian Rapoport thinks the Pittsburgh Steelers are the greatest fit, one famous quarterback isn't so sure.
The Saints are a viable destination for Rodgers in 2025, according to former Steelers quarterback Ben Roethlisberger.
The former Black and Gold signal-caller discussed Carr's injury and why it might be the end of a Rodgers-Steelers agreement on the latest installment of his podcast, Footbahlin with Ben Roethlisberger
We found out that Derek Carr might miss the entire season due to a shoulder issue. It's a little different, but I won't say for sure that's the QB I was referring to.
In the [Rodgers tale], a new chapter has begun. Everyone was saying, "It's Minnesota, Minnesota," and we assumed the door was kind of closed.
Pittsburgh, retirement, or perhaps waiting until the season started when a contender loses a quarterback are some possible explanations. Aaron will then have to decide if they want him.
Is Aaron interested in going there? Even if there are still many unanswered questions, it's fascinating that they exist.
Big Ben and Rodgers, who may suddenly have more than simply Pittsburgh or retirement in his 2025 plans, seem to have anticipated this.
