It seems that just like Thanos, but not nearly as interesting, Aaron Rodgers is inevitable.
An explosion of reports Thursday afternoon revealed what has been uninspiringly expected for several months: Aaron Rodgers will sign with the Pittsburgh Steelers.

What this means for the Seattle Seahawks, is a second consecutive season playing against Aaron Rodgers, on the road, on the East Coast. Seattle defeated Rodgers in New York last December in a 26-21 comeback victory over the Jets. This time it will be Week 2, fresh off an Opening Day victory over the San Francisco 49ers, for a 10:00 am showing in Pittsburgh. Incidentally, Rodgers’ first game with the Steelers will be on the road at the Jets.
And of course Rodgers will indeed be throwing to none other than DK Metcalf.
Very random but did you guys know AI will now predict NFL season outlooks?
Still surprising that for the moment the game remains not a prime-time contest. A disproportionate amount of the coverage will undoubtedly be on Rodgers and Metcalf, how Metcalf badly wanted out of Seattle, and whether Rodgers will have anything left at all to keep him happy with his production.
No contract details out yet for Rodgers, but we’ve got an early showdown against couple of the most polarizing players in the league! Quite a lot to look forward to in September, assuming both players make it through the summer uninjured.
Go ‘Hawks.
