Aaron Rodgers News
Thursday, May 7, 5:50 AM
Free Agent quarterback Aaron Rodgers is planning to visit the Pittsburgh Steelers to further discuss his future with the team, as reported by NFL Insider Ian Rapoport. While no deal is currently in place, there is speculation that the visit could be the next step toward getting him signed for the 2026 season. Rodgers threw for 3,322 yards and 24 touchdowns in his first season with Pittsburgh. Following a mutual parting of ways between the Steelers and long-time head coach Mike Tomlin, a return to the Steel City by the 42-year-old veteran would also mean a reunion between Rodgers and new head coach Mike McCarthy after the two spent 13 seasons together in Green Bay, including a Super Bowl-winning 2010 campaign. The Steelers added quarterback Drew Allar in the third round of the 2026 NFL Draft, and should the team find itself in a situation where it is forced to move forward without Rodgers, the Penn State rookie would likely compete with seven-year veteran Mason Rudolph and 2025 sixth-round pick Will Howard for the starting job.

Matthew Stafford News
Friday, April 24, 2:38 PM
The Los Angeles Rams raised plenty of eyebrows on Thursday night in the first round of the 2026 NFL draft when they took Alabama quarterback Ty Simpson at 13th overall, but NFL Network's Ian Rapoport says that head coach Sean McVay has made it clear that this is still MVP Matthew Stafford's team. Stafford is the QB of the present and the future in L.A., and the Rams and Stafford are "deep" in discussions about a contract extension. The Rams believe that there is a good chance that Stafford decides to continue his playing career beyond the 2026 season. At 38, Stafford is no spring chicken, but it didn't stop him from having the best season of his career in 2025, throwing for 4,707 yards for a career-high 46 touchdowns during the regular season. Durability should be a concern for fantasy managers in redraft leagues, but if healthy, there's no arguing that Stafford has some of the best receiving weapons in the NFL in receivers Puka Nacua and Davante Adams. The Rams drafted Simpson on Thursday night (and may have reached a bit) as the heir apparent to Stafford, but it sounds like he may not take over as the starting QB until 2028.
