The Pittsburgh Steelers don’t have an answer yet from Aaron Rodgers on what his plans are for the 2026 season, but their new coach is well aware of the kind of story it would be.

And Mike McCarthy, who coached Rodgers with the Green Bay Packers from 2006 to 2018, is all for a reunion story.
“Yes, it’d be a great story,” McCarthy.

Kevin Harlan asked the first-year Steelers coach about a possible reunion with Rodgers.

“I would love to tell everybody there is breaking news,” McCarthy said. “It’s really cool to see Aaron at 42 and all that he’s been able to accomplish.”
Last season was Rodgers’ first with the Steelers, and he helped them to the AFC North title. Shortly after the season, coach Mike Tomlin stepped down and was replaced by McCarthy.
