After a season-ending injury three plays into 2023, a disappointing 2024 earned Rodgers a ticket out of New York with one year left on his contract. He lacked mobility coming off the Achilles tear and dealt with a hamstring injury much of the year. But the biggest issue was an inability to stretch the field. He had a career-low 6.8-yard average target depth, 31st in the league, as nearly 70 percent of his attempts came less than 10 yards downfield (4th). The midseason arrival of favorite-target Davante Adams didn't change much. Rodgers finished eighth in yards and t-7th in TD passes, but that was good for just QB15 in fantasy, a career low for a full season. Rodgers is expected to join the Steelers this season, although it's not clear when he plans to sign. Assuming he eventually does, he'll only have one quality WR, as the Steelers traded for DK Metcalf in March, only to trade George Pickens in May. Potential starters alongside Metcalf include Robert Woods, who is 33, and Calvin Austin, who is 5-foot-9, 169 pounds. Pat Freiermuth is a reliable tight end, but not a great one. The offense likely will run through the backfield anyway, much like it did last year when the Steelers were 28th in pass percentage (52.7) and 29th in pass attempts (506). Unless Rodgers dramatically increases his YPA (6.7, 28th), 500 attempts isn't going to get it done for fantasy, especially for a 41-year-old QB without rushing upside.
