Free-agent quarterback Aaron Rodgers isn’t done touring NFL team facilities, sources tell Monday Morning Quarterback’s Albert Breer.
After a reportedly productive meeting with Rodgers in Pittsburgh last week, Steelers officials now believe he will have a similar face-to-face with the New York Giants at their facility in East Rutherford, New Jersey, according to Breer.
The timing of such a meeting remains a mystery and a Giants spokesman told DailyMail.com that he was unaware of any scheduled visit with Rodgers.
Rodgers has shared mutual interest with both the Steelers and Giants, while reportedly eyeing the starting job with the Minnesota Vikings. However, NFL insider Tom Pelissero announced Wednesday the Vikings have made the decision to commit to second-year signal caller J.J. McCarthy as their starter next season after allowing Sam Darnold to sign with the Seattle Seahawks.Â
The Giants, meanwhile, recently added former Heisman winner and first-overall draft pick Jameis Winston on a two-year, $8 million deal. Winston is coming off a season as a backup in Cleveland and could be seen as a short-term starter and place-holder in the event the Giants pick a quarterback in the first round of next month’s NFL Draft, or a potential backup to a fellow veteran, such as Rodgers.Â
The Steelers have other options as well, including last year’s starter, Russell Wilson, who played well in his first season in Pittsburgh before finishing the year on a five-game losing skid. The Steelers’ season ultimately ended with a playoff loss to the rival Baltimore Ravens.Â
