Mason Rudolph has handled the addition of Aaron Rodgers with the poise and professionalism we've come to expect from the Steelers quarterback

Most prognosticators were correct — Aaron Rodgers won't reinvent the wheel with his jersey number choice as the starting quarterback for the Pittsburgh Steelers this season. He's going back to his familiar No. 8, a number donned the last two years with the New York Jets.

Quarterback Aaron Rodgers is officially a member of the Pittsburgh Steelers after he passed his team physical and signed his one-year deal for 2025 on Saturday. Just how much is Rodgers making this season, exactly? The 41-year-old signal caller will make a $13.65 million base salary for Pittsburgh, per NFL Network's Ian Rapoport.
