Steelers' QB Dilemma: Rodgers or Simpson?

On April 4, Pittsburgh Steelers sitting at the 21st overall pick in the 2026 NFL

Draft on April 23rd and the big. Question is quarterback. Analysts Bragg

Ganyan says they got to get straight answers from Aaron Rogers on his future

before Draft Night hits. The 42-year-old vets are free agent now and nothing's

locked in. Rogers balled out last season with 3,322 passing yards, 24 touchdowns,

and just 7 picks, hitting 65.7% of his throws. Steelers won the AFC North but got

bounced early by the Houston Texans in the wild car playoffs. Coaching

Shake Up 2. Mike Tomman stepped down and they brought in Mike McCarthy who coach

Rogers to a super bowl win back in 2011 against Pittsburgh with the Packers.

Rogers has been chatting with the team, saying he digs McCarthy and digs the

vibe there. No contract on the table yet though and no deadlines. If Rogers

retires or bounces, eyes turn to Alabama's Thai Simpson who threw for nearly

4,000 yards in 28 touchdowns in college. Could be a draft target to solidify

that spot. Draft clocks taking fast so expect some fireworks soon as the

Steelers sort this QB puzzle and gear up for whatever comes next. That's your
