Maybe it's still meant to be for Aaron Rodgers and the Minnesota Vikings.
The future Hall of Fame QB still hasn't signed with his expected destination in Pittsburgh.
Pro Football Talk's Mike Florio suggests he has a reason.
A sourced opinion, Florio says, has Rodgers still eying the Vikings.
"I had somebody suggest to me yesterday, and I’m just sharing what I heard, what this person’s opinion is," Florio said on his podcast. "It’s not a fact; it’s not a report. But it’s somebody who is in the ecosystem and isn’t a low-level employee. This is a high-level person with one of the teams. The opinion is he doesn’t really want to play for the Steelers, and he’s waiting for Minnesota."
Rodgers has put in plenty of time to vetting Pittsburgh, from a long visit to throwing with Steelers star wideout DK Metcalf.
The Vikings still might be the more appealing destination, but they've made it clear that second-year quarterback J.J. McCarthy is their priority, not Rodgers.
For Rodgers to end up with the Vikings, McCarthy would have to look bad in offseason programs, you'd imagine.
And if that's what we're waiting for, this saga could still drag on for a while.
