Aaron Rodgers appears to be on borrowed time with the New York Jets. The team is reportedly planning to part ways with the veteran quarterback after two disappointing seasons during which the team failed to make a playoff run.

That will put Rodgers in search of a new team, provided the 41-year-old still wants to play. The five-time NFL MVP should still draw interest if made available given the dearth of depth and talent at the quarterback position leaguewide.

Rodgers seems likely to take his time in assessing his future, as he has done in recent seasons. But where could he end up if he does return? Here’s what the latest odds say about Rodgers’ potential landing spots in 2025 and beyond.

The Pittsburgh Steelers are the odds-on favorite to be Rodgers’ next landing spot, according to odds from DraftKings Sportsbook. Seven teams have odds shorter than 10-1 odds to be the veteran quarterback’s next team.

Below is a look at the chances for each of the NFL’s 32 teams to have Rodgers in 2025, per DraftKings:

Pittsburgh Steelers +200
Las Vegas Raiders +300
San Francisco 49ers +350

Aaron Rodgers landing spots

How would Rodgers fit with the seven teams favored to land him? Here’s a breakdown of his candidacy for each organization:

Pittsburgh Steelers (+200)

The Steelers made the playoffs last season despite inconsistent quarterback play from Russell Wilson and Justin Fields. Pittsburgh’s entire quarterback room is set to hit free agency, so the Steelers could target Rodgers and hope they can squeeze one last quality playoff run out of him.

Las Vegas Raiders (+300)

The Raiders had arguably the worst quarterback room in the NFL during the 2024 season, as Gardner Minshew, Aidan O’Connell and Desmond Ridder combined to post just a 80.05 passer rating. Rodgers would be a stopgap solution for Pete Carroll and Las Vegas has the cap space ($92.5 million, second-most in the NFL) needed to build around him.

San Francisco 49ers (+350)

Rodgers grew up a 49ers fans, so this would represent a homecoming of sorts for him. Beyond that, it doesn’t look like a great fit, as Brock Purdy is entrenched as San Francisco’s starter. Perhaps Rodgers would be willing to take on a backup job to play for the 49ers, but it doesn’t seem overly likely.

Minnesota Vikings (+400)

Could Rodgers go full Brett Favre, going from the Green Bay Packers to the Jets to the Vikings? It’s possible. The Vikings have a longterm starting quarterback in J.J. McCarthy but he’s coming off a lost rookie season because of a knee injury. If the Vikings can’t compete with the market rate for Sam Darnold, Rodgers could end up being a perfect bridge to McCarthy.

Indianapolis Colts (+650)

Anthony Richardson has the lowest passer rating among 43 qualified quarterbacks last season (61.6). If the Colts want to give the raw product time to develop his accuracy (47.7% completion rate in 2024), Rodgers would be a higher-upside stopgap than last year’s backup Joe Flacco.

Los Angeles Rams (+850)

This fit would probably depend on Matthew Stafford retiring, which doesn’t seem likely at this point. Still, if the 37-year-old calls it quits, the Rams wouldn’t have an abundance of options at quarterback. Rodgers could play a year or two for them while Sean McVay figures out a long-term future at the position.

Tennessee Titans (+850)

The Titans have the No. 1 pick in the 2025 NFL draft, but they aren’t guaranteed to use it on a quarterback. Tennessee was viewed as a potential landing spot for Rodgers during the 2023 offseason, so perhaps new general manager Mike Borgonzi will see the appeal of getting the veteran quarterback and using the No. 1 pick on a blue-chip position player like Abdul Carter or Travis Hunter.
