The wait is finally over.

Per Adam Schefter, Aaron Rodgers is returning to the Pittsburgh Steelers on a one-year deal. The four-time MVP will reunite with his former head coach with the Green Bay Packers, Mike McCarthy.

Rodgers is coming off a year in which he threw for 24 touchdowns to just seven interceptions, leading the Steelers to 10 wins and an AFC North championship.

The Steelers quarterback room now consists of Rodgers, Mason Rudolph, Will Howard, and rookie third-round pick Drew Allar. The Steelers begin OTAs on May 18.
