Pittsburgh Steelers defensive lineman Cam Heyward is urging people to have patience as the Steelers continue their pursuit of Aaron Rodgers. The team and Rodgers have been discussing the matter for over two months, and they still have no final answer from the four-time MVP.

Pittsburgh used a sixth-round pick in the 2025 NFL draft to select Ohio State quarterback Will Howard, adding him to a QB room that includes veteran backups Mason Rudolph and Skylar Thompson. None of them is considered a viable starter for the 2025 season, leaving the Steelers with no choice but to continue hoping that Rodgers signs with them.
