New York Giants free agency: We’re all on Aaron Rodgers time as we await his decision

The quarterback carousel has ground to a halt waiting for Rodgers to make his choice

The NFL world — at least the parts of it connected to the New York Giants, Pittsburgh Steelers and Minnesota Vikings — continues to wait for the always marching to the beat of his own drummer Aaron Rodgers to decide which team he will play quarterback for in 2025.

Jordan Ranaan of ESPN said earlier on Wednesday that “a decision is expected today.”

Then again, maybe not.

NFL insider Ian Rapoport indicated Wednesday morning that a decision by Rodgers may not be imminent.

“I know a lot of people think it’s going to be today for Aaron Rodgers. Might not be,” Rapoport said. “He’s on his own time … I’m sure he just wants to make the best decision he can. He has been slow, he has been methodical, he has not been rushed at all … Rodgers will make a decision when he makes a decision.”

Rapoport did add that “it does seem like money will not be an issue.” Which, of course, means money will be an issue. Because money is always an issue.

If Rodgers chooses Pittsburgh the Giants could pivot to Russell Wilson. The New York Post indicates they might consider Joe Flacco, a player GM Joe Schoen mentioned last year on ‘Hard Knocks’. They could move down the list to Jameis Winston, Carson Wentz or another available veteran quarterback.
