Ahead of the 2025 season, it seemed extremely likely that Aaron Rodgers would retire after the season at age 42. However, as the year has gone on, the quarterback has continuously hinted at a possible return for the 2026 season, which would be his 22nd.
On Wednesday, Rodgers admitted next season is on his mind as he heads into a huge Sunday Night Football showdown against the Ravens, in which the winner will make the playoffs and the loser is out. He did only sign a one-year deal with the Steelers, so if he intends to play another season, then a new deal is needed. Whether that’s with Pittsburgh again or not, that’s another question.
