At one point during Thursday's NFL Draft first round in Pittsburgh, two legendary quarterbacks paraded onto the stage. There came Ben Roethlisberger Tomas Hamara Jersey , and then he was joined by Terry Bradshaw. And, well, it was a reminder of where the Steelers currently sit.

Rodgers is technically a free agent after his first season in Pittsburgh, but it seems he'd only sign back with the Steelers if he signs anywhere. The all-time great could also decide to retire, and as of draft week, he seemingly hasn't made up his mind yet. It's a tough situation for the Steelers to be in. There was some speculation that Rodgers could show up at the NFL Draft and announce his return in front of the Pittsburgh fans. That seems like something that would've happened during the first round if it was going to happen at all, though, and it didn't.

We'll never know, because the shocked the draft by taking Simpson at No. 13. So now the Steelers' best hope of a drafted QB is someone like Drew Allar or Carson Beck, guys that won't be close to starters on day one but could develop over time. They'll still need Rodgers around to have any chance of making the playoffs in 2026. And right now, as the draft rolls on in downtown Pittsburgh, the city waits on Rodgers.
