Numerous stories shared since late 2024 have suggested that current Pittsburgh Steelers quarterback Aaron Rodgers and New York Jets wide receiver Garrett Wilson "never saw eye-to-eye" and "weren’t exactly the best of friends" as the Jets struggled through a 5-12 season with Rodgers in the lineup.

The Pittsburgh Steelers made their decision that Aaron Rodgers was the best possible option for them at quarterback entering the 2025 season. The track record speaks for itself as Rodgers is a no-doubt Hall of Famer.
