Tyrod Taylor a Packer
37 years old in August. IMO, solid QB2.
Corresponding move: The Packers are releasing QB Desmond Ridder, per source. https://t.co/8wxTKuR90i

Meanwhile....
The Pittsburgh Post-Gazette’s Gerry Dulac suggests that the Steelers’ “patience could be starting to wear thin” with Aaron Rodgers and his decision to play in 2026.
It’s unclear whether this is a report from inside the building or Dulac speculating, but regardless, it wouldn’t be surprising to learn that the Steelers are growing tired of waiting for the 42-year-old quarterback to make his decision. The Steelers recently applied the rarely used unrestricted free-agent tender to Rodgers, giving them the right of first refusal and a chance to match any offer Rodgers may receive from another team. The Steelers have quarterbacks Mason Rudolph and Will Howard on the roster and also used the No. 76 overall pick in this year’s draft to select Penn State’s Drew Allar. Head coach Mike McCarthy will have multiple options at his disposal if Rodgers doesn’t return, but he remains their best option if he opts to continue playing.

Karen just doesn't want to attend OTA's. They probably already have a handshake deal and will make it official after the underwear practices conclude. If that's not the case then I don't know WTF the Steelers are thinking at QB.

Hold their breaths and grab a rook in 27...And then hold their breath again.
