Rooney added that Rodgers' recent workout with Metcalf was a "good sign" for the club's pursuit of the four-time NFL MVP, who's been unsigned since his release from the New York Jets in March. He also noted that the Steelers are content being patient with Rodgers: "Not forever, but a little while longer."

It seems like a sure bet the Pittsburgh Steelers will sign a veteran quarterback, even if it's not Aaron Rodgers.

Former New York Jets quarterback Aaron Rodgers and the Pittsburgh Steelers seem ready to join forces, but no announcement has been made yet.

Art Rooney didn't mince words when discussing how long Pittsburgh is willing to wait on the mercurial quarterback.

While the Steelers continue to wait for a final decision from Aaron Rodgers, owner Art Rooney II indicated that an answer could come soon.

Rooney called Rodgers’ workout with DK Metcalf another ‘positive sign’ for their signs of landing the four-time MVP. For now, the Steelers only have Mason Rudolph and Skylar Thompson under contract, but they hope Rodgers will become the third quarterback before the NFL Draft.

The Pittsburgh Steelers haven't signed free-agent quarterback Aaron Rodgers just yet, but things sure seem to be heading that way. Steelers owner Art Rooney II indicated a signing was likely, telling reporters things were " pointing in that direction ," at the league's annual meetings Tuesday.

The four-time NFL MVP worked out recently with new Steelers wide receiver DK Metcalf after previously visiting the team.
