1 Sep
Summary
- Aaron Rodgers to play his final NFL season with the Pittsburgh Steelers in 2026.
- He needs to play 13 games to reach 300 career game appearances.
- This milestone will place him in an elite group of quarterbacks with 300+ games.
As the 2026 NFL season approaches, Aaron Rodgers has announced that his illustrious career will conclude with the Pittsburgh Steelers. This upcoming season marks his final year in professional football before retirement. Entering his 22nd season, Rodgers has a unique opportunity to etch his name further into NFL history.
Rodgers needs to play in just 13 games during the 2026 season to reach 300 career game appearances, including postseason play. This achievement would place him alongside other legendary quarterbacks such as Tom Brady, Brett Favre, and Drew Brees, who are the only other players to have accomplished this feat. Despite facing multiple injury-shortened seasons and a slow start in his first three years, Rodgers has consistently played significant portions of recent seasons, making the 13-game target well within reach.
