Aaron Rodgers will wear No. 8 for the Pittsburgh Steelers. Rodgers wore No. 12 throughout his entire Green Bay Packers career, but he switched to No. 8, which he wore in college at Cal, when he landed with the Jets in 2023. No. 12 was unavailable in New York with that jersey retired in honor of Super Bowl III-winning quarterback Joe Namath.

After weeks of waiting and mulling his different options, Aaron Rodgers has chosen his new NFL team. The four-time NFL MVP agreed to terms with the Pittsburgh Steelers, the team announced Thursday night.

After agreeing to terms on Thursday, Rodgers flew out to Pittsburgh to sign the contract, and some more in-depth details released on the deal. Rodgers signed a one-year deal that's worth up to $19.5 million. $10 million will be guaranteed with the base salary being set at $13.65 million, according to NFL insider Ian Rapoport.
