Turns out, Aaron Rodgers was a last-case scenario option for the Pittsburgh Steelers at quarterback.ESPN's Adam Schefter laid out the options on Get Up earlier in the week, and there were multiple QB names in front of Rodgers.

Aaron Rodgers has already found his jersey number with the Steelers. Rodgers, 41, is set to wear No. 8 next season with Pittsburgh, the team shared in a social media post. The number previously belonged to Steelers punter Corliss Waitman, who will now switch to No. 3 for the upcoming season, per ESPN’s Adam Schefter.

While the Steelers brass came to a consensus decision to sign Aaron Rodgers, Pittsburgh coach Mike Tomlin "led the charge" to acquire the future Hall of Fame quarterback and four-time league MVP, according to ESPN's Jeremy Fowler .
