Mason Rudolph and Skylar Thompson are currently seated at the top of the team depth of the team while he waits for Rodgers. The veteran had A productive meeting With the team in March. Despite the owner of the Steelers, Art Rooney II, which looks like Rodgers in Pittsburgh was an agreement concluded, no contract has materialized.
With the unstable situation, the Steelers will continue to assess their options. Sanders should not be available when the Steelers choose n ° 21 in the first round, but He may fall. It is also possible that the Steelers leave impressed by Sanders and try to exchange to write it. Although Sanders’ success is not guaranteed in the NFL, it is an attractive long -term perspective, which the other team’s options do not bring to the table.
Rodgers had a good statistical season, but showed his age with the 5-12 New York Jets last season. The 41 -year -old man completed 63% of his passes, launching 28 affected and 11 interceptions. The jets separated from the veteran during the offseason.

Rudolph returned to the team during the offseason after spending a year with the Tennessee titans. In four seasons with the Steelers, Rudolph launched 19 affected and 11 interceptions in more than 13 departures. Thompson played 10 NFL games and launched for 1 hit and 3 interceptions.
The Steelers are on the market for a new quarter-Arrière after Justin Fields and Russell Wilson went to the free agency. The two times separated as a team starter in 2024, leading Pittsburgh to a 10-7 file and an appearance in the playoffs. Although the two did not lit up the statistics sheet, the two players should start for their new teams in 2025 – fields with the jets and Wilson with the New York giants.
The addition of rodgers to the mixture in 2025 would undoubtedly improve the team’s chances of returning to the playoffs, but should not prevent them from continuing Sanders. Turning things into a promising recruit if Rodgers Fablit is a massive upgrade compared to the current situation of the team.
And if Rodgers has a resurgence at the end of his career and forces Sanders to sit on the bench after falling in the draft … Well, at least both have something to bind.
