The Pittsburgh Steelers have a quarterback problem. Last year’s backup, Justin Fields, agreed to a two-year contract with the New York Jets. Russell Wilson, who started 11 games last season, is a free agent, and the Steelers have shown no signs of wanting him back.
If the Steelers move off of Wilson this offseason, they could target Aaron Rodgers. The 41-year-old quarterback parted ways with the Jets in February, and reports from several outlets show the team’s interest in Rodgers.
If Pittsburgh adds Rodgers, they could use him for a season or two before they draft their next young quarterback. But some fans aren’t too happy that the former Green Bay Packers star could head to their city.
Steelers fans took to social media to react to the rumors of Rodgers signing with the Steelers, and here are some reactions.
Pittsburgh Steelers Fans Reactions
“If Aaron Rodgers signs with the Pittsburgh Steelers, I’m not watching,” one fan wrote.
Another said they wouldn’t be watching whoever was playing quarterback. “No, I will not be watching regardless… Maybe I will turn them in once Tomlin is gone.”
One fan said they would watch but wouldn’t be happy about it: “No, I’ll watch; I just won’t be happy about it.”
It’s safe to say Steelers fans aren’t too happy about the direction their franchise is heading.
