The Steelers have placed a rarely-used tender on Aaron Rodgers. The move gives the Steelers security in the entire situation. If Rodgers were to sign with another team, it would give the Steelers a compensatory pick in next year’s draft. This also provides Rodgers with the incentive of a small raise, but he’s pretty much locked to the Steelers unless he chooses to retire. If this was so ‘set in stone’ like most of the Steelers media wants us to believe, why did they do this? The guys think it’s a bit curious. And a shout out to Mike DeFabo for pointing out that this was definitely not part of the Steelers plan. It sounds even more confusing than last year. Is the Rodgers retirement starting to build momentum?
