Jaylen Warren shares his blunt take on Aaron Rodgers’ uncertain future

Aaron Rodgers remains a mystery in the NFL offseason. His future with the Pittsburgh Steelers and in the NFL, for that matter, has largely been uncertain since the AFC North franchise was eliminated by the Houston Texans in the playoffs.

Steelers running back Jaylen Warren is fine with whichever direction Rodgers takes.

“You know, I’m not really expecting anything,” Warren said during Friday’s appearance on Good Morning Football, via Bobby Kownack of NFL.com. “Whatever happens, happens. I’m rocking with whoever’s at the quarterback position. But if he comes back, great. If he doesn’t, then we’ll miss him.”

Warren, who had a career-high 958 rushing yards and 6 touchdowns on 211 carries in 2025, is entering his fourth season with the Steelers, and, like most Pittsburgh supporters, he wants clarity at the team’s QB position. 

Even if Rodgers ultimately decides to give it another go with the Steelers, that doesn’t clear things up about the team’s long-term outlook under center. The future Pro Football Hall of Fame signal-caller passed for 3,322 yards and 24 touchdowns against 7 interceptions on a 65.7% completion rate in 2025.

Rodgers turned 42 years old in December. Pittsburgh currently has Mason Rudolph and Will Howard in its quarterback room, and neither is much to write home about.
