Aaron Rodgers wastes no time bonding with new Steelers teammates in offseason photos
Aaron Rodgers' love life is off-limits, but he apparently doesn't mind sharing glimpses of his professional adventures. On Wednesday, the Steelers quarterback shared two photos from offseason workouts with his new teammates on Instagram. The first shot showed Rodgers alongside those who will be catching his passes this upcoming season, including new star receiver DK Metcalf and fellow wideouts Scotty Miller, Calvin Austin III, Ben Skowronek and Roman Wilson, along with tight end Pat Freiermuth. 4 Aaron Rodgers poses with his Steelers teammates. @aaronrodgers12/Instagram The second image showed Rodgers, Miller, Austin, Miller and Skowronek posing against a scenic water backdrop after a workout. It's likely the workouts happened in California, since Rodgers tagged Proactive Sports Performance in the posts, which is headquartered in Westlake Village. Entering what he expects to be his last season, the 41-year-old is trying to develop rapport with a new group of offensive weapons. Rodgers is notoriously tough to play alongside — just ask his ex-Jets teammate, Garrett Wilson — due to his expectations and demands on his pass-catchers, and any extra time together can only help. 4 Aaron Rodgers (c) flanked by his new teammates. @aaronrodgers12/Instagram The Steelers went 10-7 last season with Russell Wilson but lost their last five games and are hopeful Rodgers can provide better play under center. They signed him to a one-year deal with a base of $13.65 million that can be worth up to $19.5 million. Rodgers is coming off a two-season stint with the Jets, where he played alongside BFF Davante Adams in 2024 as Wilson, the 2022 Offensive Rookie of the Year, took a backseat. 4 Aaron Rodgers could be entering his last season. AP Oddsmakers, though, aren't buying it. The Steelers' win total is 8.5 at DraftKings, and they are favored in just six of their 17 games. Getting back to football activities surely is a welcome reprieve for Rodgers, who revealed that he's married — although his wife remains a mystery. Rodgers had been dating a woman named Brittani as of last December and wore a black ring on his left ring finger while signing his Steelers contract in June. There has since been plenty of chatter about his marriage, which he's not pleased with. 4 Aaron Rodgers could not save the Jets. Getty Images 'My private life is my private life and it's going to stay that way, and I'm with somebody who wants to be private, and if and when she wants to be out and there's a picture, she'll choose that,' Rodgers said last month on the 'Pat McAfee Show' on ESPN. 'But the entitlement to information about my private life is so f–king ridiculous and embarrassing.'

Oddsmakers don't believe in Aaron Rodgers' Steelers
Gambling content 21+. The New York Post may receive an affiliate commission if you sign up through our links. Read our editorial standards for more information. Oddsmakers are low on the Steelers' 2025 chances with Aaron Rodgers in the fold. Despite their big addition at quarterback, Pittsburgh's over/under win total is sitting at just 8.5, which is right around their typical end-of-season number in recent years. They are favored in just six of their 17 games at DraftKings Sportsbook — and those are against some of the NFL's worst teams. The Steelers are minus-odds in both divisional games against the Browns, on the road against the Jets, and at home versus the Seahawks, Colts and Dolphins. They aren't favored by seven or more points in any of those games. Vegas bookies didn't budge after months of flirtation between Rodgers and the Steelers came to an end last month. Before officially signing Rodgers, the Steelers were +4500 to win the Lombardi Trophy at BetMGM Sportsbook, the 17th-best odds in the league. That number didn't budge after finally landing Rodgers, suggesting oddsmakers assumed all along the ex-Jets QB was heading to Pittsburgh. New Steelers quarterback Aaron Rodgers during minicamp at UPMC Rooney Sports Complex on June 12, 2025 in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania. Getty Images They are also +145 to make the playoffs and a +600 long shot to win the AFC North at BetMGM. The Steelers are hoping Rodgers can get them over the hump a near-decade of playoff incompetence. Pittsburgh has lost six straight postseason games, including a wild-card round loss in four of the last five seasons. Betting on the NFL? The future Hall of Famer heads to Pittsburgh after a disappointing 2024 season for the 5-12 Jets, during which he threw for 3,897 yards with 28 touchdowns and 11 interceptions. He replaces Russell Wilson, who is likely to take the starting job with the Giants. Rodgers will have a new Steelers receiving corps to throw to after the franchise traded for star pass-catcher D.K. Metcalf and dealt away George Pickens to the Cowboys.

Aaron Rodgers' family not sure QB's surprise marriage actually happened
Those related to Aaron Rodgers are apparently questioning the validity of his marriage. That's according to a new report published Monday by the Daily Mail, in which insiders alleged 'the family is unconvinced the marriage is real,' and that the new Steelers QB 'may have had a symbolic 'commitment ceremony' instead of a legally binding wedding.'

Advertisement Rodgers revealed in December 2024 he was in a relationship with a woman named Brittani — someone his younger brother, Jordan Rodgers, and his wife, JoJo Fletcher, aren't familiar with. 'Jordan and JoJo didn't go to the wedding and don't even know anything really about Brittani,' a source previously told the Daily Mail of the couple, who wed in 2022 after getting engaged on the famed reality TV dating show 'The Bachelorette' in 2016. 7 Members of Aaron Rodgers' family have allegedly learned bits about Brittani from his parents, seen here in 2011.
