New Orleans Saints quarterback Derek is going to retire as the Pittsburgh Steelers wait and wonder about Aaron Rodgers.

Over the last few months, it's been pretty obvious that there is some connection between Aaron Rodgers and the Pittsburgh Steelers. Even before the New York Jets opted to move on from the future Hall of Famer there already was buzz about the possibility of a move.

Pittsburgh went 10-7 and made the playoffs in 2024 under quarterbacks Russell Wilson and Justin Fields. Wilson signed with the New York Giants while Fields went to the Jets to replace Rodgers, so the position is open for the taking.
