Where exactly Aaron Rodgers will play in the 2025 NFL season remains a mystery. It is not even certain at the moment whether he’d play another game in the NFL, as retirement is also an option for the four-time NFL Most Valuable Player.
But while nothing is sure on that front, Rodgers appears to be busy keeping his body in shape. In fact, the 41-year-old free agent quarterback was seen practicing this offseason with Pittsburgh Steelers rookie running back Kaleb Johnson, who just got selected by the AFC North division franchise in the 2025 NFL draft.
Johnson shared a post via Instagram stories, which showed Rodgers apparently training with the former Iowa Hawkeyes star running back.

In any case, the Steelers must be excited with their acquisition of Johnson, who led the Big Ten conference in the 2024 college football season in both rushing yards (1537) and rushing touchdowns (21) while appearing in only 12 games for the Iowa Hawkeyes.
The Steelers parted ways this offseason with Najee Harris and retained Jaylen Warren, but Johnson should be in the mix for the team’s RB1 job for the 2025 NFL campaign.
