Steelers quarterback Aaron Rodgers, whose competitiveness is legendary, will have no shortage of motivation against the Packers.

Aaron Rodgers turns 42 years old in December and is playing on a one-year contract with the Pittsburgh Steelers, but that reportedly doesn't mean he is guaranteed to retire after the 2025 campaign.

The Steelers' second-year offensive coordinator is finding success with yet another very different quarterback.

“Feel so good about my time there because damn near everything great in my life is because of my football career, and my football career starts, and will end one day, with Green Bay,” Rodgers said, via Rob Demovsky of ESPN.com. “So got a lot of love for all those memories.”

It’s probably a weird feeling to see the four-time AP NFL MVP speak to Green Bay media members on Zoom while decked out in black and gold, even nearly three years after his most recent snaps at Lambeau Field.

If there's one thing Aaron Rodgers learned during his time as a backup quarterback in the NFL, it was that he didn't have control over how the Green Bay Packers managed the transition from Brett Favre.
