When do the Jets play Aaron Rodgers and the Steelers in 2025?

Aaron Rodgers has announced his intentions to play for the Pittsburgh Steelers in 2025. The future Hall of Fame quarterback and formerly anointed New York Jets savior has reportedly agreed to a one-year deal to join the Steelers, per NFL Network's Tom Pelissero.

Rodgers is now expected to join a Steelers team that hasn’t had a losing season in over two decades. The four-time MVP reportedly only wanted to play for a Super Bowl contender, and clearly, he believes Pittsburgh fits the bill.

The Jets made the decision to move on from Rodgers this offseason following a highly disappointing two-year stretch with the organization. In his place, the Jets signed former first-round pick Justin Fields to serve as their starting quarterback this season.

That means the Jets and Steelers have, in effect, swapped quarterbacks. With Rodgers now in Pittsburgh, the natural question is whether he’ll face his former team in 2025, and the answer should excite fans looking for NFL drama.

When do the Jets play the Steelers in 2025?

Fortunately for fans of the revenge-game narrative, they might just get their wish. The Jets are set to host the Steelers at MetLife Stadium in 2025, setting the stage for Aaron Rodgers to face his former team in a dramatic homecoming.

Aaron Rodgers will return to MetLife Stadium in 2025, this time as a member of the Steelers, less than a year after the Jets moved on from him. The kicker? It could be a double revenge game, with Justin Fields also set to face his former team.

The NFL is doing its part to get the most out of this double revenge game, as the Jets will host the Steelers in the very first week of the season. Jets vs. Steelers. Justin Fields vs. Aaron Rodgers. Week 1. Book it.

Rodgers joins a Steelers quarterback room that previously featured the likes of Mason Rudolph, mid-round rookie Will Howard, and former Miami Dolphins backup Skylar Thompson.

The future Hall of Famer will be in attendance for Steelers minicamp next week before returning a few weeks later for training camp. After months of patience and deliberation, Rodgers is on his way to Pittsburgh.

And soon after, he will be returning to MetLife Stadium to take on his former team.
