Matt LaFleur believes Aaron Rodgers is Pittsburgh bound

As we get closer and closer to the month of June and closer to mandatory minicamp, the anticipation of the Aaron Rodgers to Pittsburgh expectations and rumors continue to grow and grow.

Rodgers is heavily expected to sign with the Steelers ahead of that mandatory minicamp mark of the offseason, so these next few weeks will certainly be days when the news could break at any point. And it isn’t just the media that expects Rodgers to be a Steeler; it’s head coaches, as well. Specifically, Green Bay Packers head coach Matt LaFleur. Joining Up & Adams, LaFleur says that, while neither Mike Tomlin nor Arthur Smith has reached out to him to ask any Rodgers-centric questions, he expects that Rodgers will be a Steeler.

“I’m pretty sure they know what they’re doing,” LaFleur said. “I’m sure they’re confident in what they’re doing. I would fully expect him to be a Pittsburgh Steeler.”

Rodgers played under LaFleur from 2019-22, where the duo led the Packers to three consecutive 13-3 seasons from 2019-21. Rodgers also won two MVPs with LaFleur as his head coach. It’s certainly not nothing that LaFleur would go out of his way to say he expects his former quarterback to head to Pittsburgh.
