Michael Pittman spoke to the media for the first time since becoming a Pittsburgh Steeler, and he shares one thing in common with potential 2026 starting quarterback Aaron Rodgers — he trains at the same facility in California.
When speaking with reporters, Pittman admitted that while he hasn't caught passes from Rodgers, they've talked a little bit in the past, and he plans to text him when he gets back to California.
Pittman also added that he knows Rodgers loves football and knows that he'll certainly consider playing for the Steelers in 2026.
On Wednesday, the Steelers officially completed a trade with the Indianapolis Colts to acquire Pittman and a 2026 seventh-round draft pick in exchange for a 2026 sixth-round selection.
Rodgers hasn't given the Steelers a definitive decision as to whether or not he'll return in 2026, but there are rumors that Pittsburgh has a few different options in mind if the plan falls apart. Hopefully, a new receiving corps featuring Pittman and DK Metcalf could entice Rodgers to give it one more season.

Michael Pittman Jr. said he doesn't know what Aaron Rodgers is going to do, but: "Just knowing him, I know that he loves football and that he's going to consider it." https://t.co/De8OEibkeH
