Whether Saints fans love him or hate him, Aaron Rodgers will not play for New Orleans in 2025.
Heading into free agency, Rodgers’ big-three landing spots were speculated to be the Steelers, Vikings, and Giants — and Pittsburgh was seemingly the last one standing, as both NFC teams desired to go in a different direction at QB.
After Derek Carr’s retirement, the Saints were left scratching their heads at who their next signal caller would be — with fans and analysts alike predicting Rodgers would be a perfect fit. Rodgers, however, must have not gotten the memo and shot down a Saints signing in 2025.
Making an appearance at a Mike Stud concert in Texas this past weekend, Rodgers also participated in a Q&A that was uploaded on Friday, titled Mia’s Brothers On The Hot Seat: Mike & Aaron Rodgers. One fan asked the future Hall of Fame QB if he’d consider playing with the Saints, and this was Rodgers’ response:
“No,” Rodgers laughed off. “That’s the answer. No. I played there a couple times — but no, the answer is no. I’m too old, I don’t want to live in Louisiana.”
At the same Q&A, Rodgers all but confirmed he’d play for the Steelers by referencing playing against the Bears in an away game — one that Pittsburgh will find itself in on Week 12.
Retirement and signing with the Steelers seem like Rodgers’ only two options left — after the Saints now join the Vikings and Giants as teams he likely won’t play for in 2025.
