Rodgers’ arrival instantly changes the calculus for the Steelers. His legendary accuracy, experience, and clutch playmaking elevate Pittsburgh’s offense to a new level, giving the likes of George Pickens, Pat Freiermuth, and Najee Harris a proven leader under center.
But the challenge is real: the AFC is stacked with star quarterbacks and elite defenses. Rodgers must build chemistry quickly with new teammates and adapt to offensive coordinator Arthur Smith’s system.
Pittsburgh fans and analysts alike are already dreaming of a Super Bowl run, hoping Rodgers can replicate his Green Bay magic—and maybe even bring home Lombardi Trophy number seven for the black and gold.

Steelers Part Ways With Former Super Bowl Champion Just Two Weeks After Signing
Pittsburgh, PA – October 8, 2025 The Pittsburgh Steelers have made another surprising roster move ahead of Week 6, parting ways with a veteran defender barely two weeks after signing him. The move comes as the team officially adds running back and return specialist Raheem Blackshear to the practice squad. The player released was linebacker Ja’Whaun Bentley, a seasoned interior tackler who brought championship pedigree and leadership to the locker room. His release was confirmed Tuesday through the team’s official social media channels. Bentley, 28, had spent his entire career with the New England Patriots before arriving in Pittsburgh in mid-September. Over 85 career games and two playoff appearances, he recorded more than 510 total tackles , 10+ sacks, two interceptions, and four forced fumbles. He also earned a Super Bowl ring as a rookie during the 2018–19 season, the final championship run of Tom Brady in New England. When Pittsburgh brought him in, many expected Bentley to fill the role once held by fellow former Patriot Elandon Roberts, who departed in free agency. With Malik Harrison sidelined, Bentley was seen as a smart veteran addition to stabilize the middle of the defense. However, his stint was short-lived. Despite his experience and physicality, Bentley reportedly failed to make a strong impression during practice sessions, prompting the coaching staff to explore other options. The Steelers remain confident in their current linebacker corps, led by Patrick Queen, Payton Wilson, Cole Holcomb, and rookie Carson Bruener. Jon Rhattigan continues to provide depth from the practice squad. Now sitting 3–1 and leading the AFC North, the Steelers are focusing on maintaining flexibility as injuries emerge elsewhere on the roster. For Bentley, the move marks yet another unexpected turn — from signing with a contender to being released — all within the span of two weeks.
