Pittsburgh Steelers safety DeShon Elliott has made it clear he’s not a fan of Aaron Rodgers joining the team. In a since-deleted Instagram comment, Elliott said “leave his ass at the retirement home” in response to rumors about Rodgers potentially signing with the Steelers.
Elliott’s comment reflects his strong feelings about Rodgers, which date back to their time as opponents in the NFC North. In 2023, Elliott criticized Rodgers for not respecting the Detroit Lions, saying “I don’t like none of that shit” in reference to Rodgers’ behavior.
The Steelers are currently exploring their quarterback options for 2025, and Rodgers is one of the names being mentioned. However, it’s clear that Elliott is not on board with the idea of Rodgers joining the team. With the Steelers looking to bounce back from a disappointing season, it will be interesting to see how they address their quarterback situation and whether Elliott’s comments will have any impact on their decision-making process.
