Introduction
Quarterback Aaron Rodgers has certainly had an eventful offseason, ultimately signing with the Pittsburgh Steelers on June 7th. Last season with the New York Jets didn’t go as planned, though Rodgers’ stats were far from poor—especially considering he was coming off an Achilles injury the year before. In 17 games, he threw for 3,897 yards, 28 touchdowns, and 11 interceptions. His passer rating unfortunately dipped 12 points below his career average (career average: 102.6; last season: 90.5).
Now, with veteran head coach Mike Tomlin and second-year offensive coordinator Arthur Smith, Rodgers and the Steelers appear poised for an exciting season.

Overall, the sportsbooks seem to share a similar outlook on Rodgers, but there’s a clear concern about his effectiveness and the elevated risk of injury that comes with his age.
Conclusion
Aaron Rodgers, in what may very well be his final NFL season, will have a fascinating group to work with—from the coaching staff to a wide receiver corps led by DK Metcalf, along with one of the deepest tight end rooms in the league. If this Steelers offensive line can continue to grow together, Rodgers could be in for an exciting—and hopefully injury-free—season.
