Rodgers will have a base salary between $22 million and $23 million, with the remainder paid as incentives. The 42-year-old will be entering his 22nd season and his second with the Steelers once he signs on the dotted line.
Pittsburgh (10-7) won the AFC North division with Rodgers under center last season, but were bounced in the first round of the NFL Playoffs after losing 30-6 to the Houston Texans.
Rodgers finished the 2025 season with a career-low 3,322 passing yards and 24 passing touchdowns (min. 10 games).
He'll be returning to a Steelers team under new management. Pittsburgh fired head coach Mike Tomlin after he spent all 19 years of his career with the organization before bringing in Mike McCarthy as his replacement.
Rodgers and McCarthy were on the Packers together from 2006 to 2018, winning Super Bowl XLV (2011). Now, they're reunited in the Steel City as the franchise looks to win back-to-back division titles for the first time since 2016-2017.
The Steelers selected Penn State QB Drew Allar in this year's draft and Ohio State QB Will Howard in last year's, along with now seven-year vet Mason Rudolph, as the QB room just got crowded.
Rodgers is a five-time All-Pro and a member of the Hall of Fame All-2010s team. He currently sits at 66,274 career passing yards, which is fifth-most all-time behind his former Packers teammate Brett Favre (71,838).
He needs 13 more passing touchdowns to surpass Hall of Famer Peyton Manning (539) to move into third-most all-time.
The Steelers will open up the 2026 season at home against the Atlanta Falcons on September 13th.
