In his Netflix docuseries, “Enigma,” Rodgers discussed his past relationships and said he “hated” the fame that came with his successful football career.
After the crude comment and other chatter about the Steelers hiring his former Green Bay Packers head coach and Pittsburgh native Mike McCarthy, Rodgers was asked by McAfee about his football intentions in a roundabout way.
“Anyone who expects me to make a big decision, just shut it down now,” the four-time NFL MVP said. “Just go.”
“We’re sitting here. It’s March 4. Free agency starts in a week,” he said. “I’ve been spending a lot of time with my wife. We went on a ski trip. Just been laying low. There’s a lot of other things going on with the situation in Malibu that’s changed some things.
“I’ve talked to Mike (McCarthy), I’ve talked to (Steelers GM Omar Khan). There’s been no deadline that’s been put in front of me. There’s no contract offer or anything. There’s nothing to negotiate between. I’m a free agent. And again, I’m enjoying my time with my wife and enjoying the part of the conversation where I’ve had this part. line. There’s been no progressive conversations.”

In his first season with the Steelers, after an unsuccessful two-year stint with the New York Jets, Rodgers led the team to a 10-6 record and a playoff berth that was nearly there if Baltimore Ravens rookie Tyler Loop didn’t miss a wide field goal in Week 17.
In 2025, Rodgers ended up making his free agent decision in June. He would go on to throw for 3,322 passing yards and 24 touchdown passes with Pittsburgh.
