Report: Pittsburgh Steelers expect Aaron Rodgers to meet with New York Giants

While Aaron Rodgers is still deciding if and where he will play this fall, his destinations appear to be narrowing.

The 41-year-old Rodgers' choices are down to the New York Giants, the Pittsburgh Steelers, and retirement.

That may seem like desperation given the recent performance of both teams.Maybe not, writes veteran NFL reporter Albert Breer.

Rodgers wants to play for a legacy team and few franchises have the legacy the Giants and Steelers offer.While money is always a factor in the NFL, I dont really get the idea it will be in this particular case, with either the New York Giants or the Steelers.

At this point, my sense is that whatever Rodgers decides will come down to what he sees as the best football situation.And along those lines, Ive heard Rodgers is looking for a culture such as the one in Green Bay.Breer suggests that the Steelers have the edge, citing Pittsburgh has "a long-established culture, a family-business feel, and stability, just like Green Bay."He also says, "The Giants have some, but not all, of those elements," referring to their recent nosedive into the NFC cellar.Rodgers met with the Steelers last Friday and spent most of the day with them.

He walked away without a contract -- for now.

He has yet to meet with the Giants but the Steelers believe that will change shortly.So whats next? Well, Steelers folks seemed to think coming out of their meeting that hed probably do a similar day with the Giants to get a vibe for their building, and what head coach Brian Daboll and GM Joe Schoen have built.

Unlike the Steelers, the Giants would look to Rodgers to do what the Jets envisioned him accomplishing and lift a growing, young core brimming with potential within a franchise thats fallen on hard times.Rodgers is reportedly back in the New York area, so we'll see if that comes to fruition.This article originally appeared on Giants Wire: Steelers expect Aaron Rodgers to meet with Giants.
