The Pittsburgh Steelers are onboarding Aaron Rodgers this week after the 41-year-old quarterback signed with the franchise heading into minicamp. They're doing so without one of the roster's star players, T.J. Watt, who is holding out in an effort to secure a new contract from Pittsburgh.
Mike Tomlin spoke to media earlier in the week and conveyed he wasn't surprised by Watt's absence, but he and the organization were actively working to resolve the situation. On Thursday, the head coach offered a similar update, one laced with both hope and foreboding.
