At first, Rodgers explained that at 41 years old, the free agency decision process may take longer than usual. However, he also vaguely alluded to his personal life taking precedence over the Pittsburgh Steelers or mulling over retirement:

Free-agent quarterback Aaron Rodgers said Thursday that there is no specific timeline in place for him to make a decision about his playing future. During an appearance on the Pat McAfee Show (h/t NFL Network's Tom Pelissero ), Rodgers said the following with regard to his talks with the Pittsburgh Steelers:

The Pittsburgh Steelers are still in search of a QB1 a month after free agency and less than week away from the NFL Draft. However, Field Yates and Mel Kiper Jr.'s latest mock draft proposes a solution for that apparent need.

It is possible Rodgers is holding off on making a decision after the Steelers offered him a contract several weeks ago to see how the NFL draft shakes out, and specifically what that means for Pittsburgh's QB room.

The Pittsburgh Steelers are looking for their next quarterback. They may even consider moving up in this draft to take one and allowing the Chicago Bears to improve their defensive front.
