Aaron Rodgers, Mike Tomlin in a ‘bromance’ — Steelers coach reveals how it began
NY Post
Aaron Rodgers’ “bromance” with Steelers coach Mike Tomlin began long before the former league MVP officially signed on the dotted line to become the team’s next QB.
When discussing the bond forged between the pair this offseason, Tomlin, 53, said Wednesday on “The Pat McAfee Show” that he “enjoyed getting to know” Rodgers during those initial conversations as they look to contend for a championship.
“It was kind of a bromance,” a grinning Tomlin said from Steelers training camp. “For me, man, I was just excited to get to know the guy on a personal level, and so, that’s how I viewed it. Man, we had some cool and interesting conversations about football, about life, about where he is in his career and what he’s potentially looking for.”
Rodgers, 41, was coming off two unspectacular seasons with the Jets — the first of which he was sidelined after rupturing his Achilles just four plays into the 2023 campaign — when Pittsburgh set its sights on the four-time league MVP.
Although the Steelers hosted Rodgers for a visit to the team’s facility in March, the quarterback remained unsigned at the time.
A month later, Rodgers revealed he had been tending to matters in his private life, making it clear personal affairs were the priority.
