Aaron Rodgers’ season with the Steelers came to a screeching halt on Monday, as Pittsburgh was bounced from the playoffs and the quarterback had a rough night.
If the Steelers' playoff loss was Aaron Rodgers' final act, it won’t be a wholly satisfying one. Yet it won’t define him, either.
Neither Pittsburgh Steelers quarterback Aaron Rodgers nor head coach Mike Tomlin were ready to make any declarative statements regarding their futures following a dismal 30-6 wild-card loss to the Houston Texans to end their 2025 season.
The levees broke in the final frame when Will Anderson Jr. stripped Rodgers, and Sheldon Rankins picked up the loose ball and returned it 33 yards for a touchdown. That extended Houston's lead to two scores and effectively left Pittsburgh in the rearview mirror.
