Aaron Rodgers’ participation in the upcoming match against the Chicago Bears remains uncertain. The Pittsburgh Steelers quarterback, currently dealing with a left wrist injury, is officially listed as questionable for Sunday’s game. Head coach Mike Tomlin provided updates, indicating that the decision rests with the medical team.
Injury Update on Aaron Rodgers
Rodgers sustained the injury during the Steelers’ victory over the Cincinnati Bengals in Week 11. He missed Wednesday’s practice, with limited participation noted on both Thursday and Friday. Tomlin commented on the situation, noting, “It’s non-surgical,” and emphasized the importance of ensuring that Rodgers can safely protect himself before making a call on his appearance.
Potential Quarterback Scenario
Should Rodgers be medically cleared, this game will mark a significant moment. It would be his first matchup against the Bears as a member of the Steelers, having previously played for the Green Bay Packers. In the event Rodgers cannot play, Mason Rudolph is prepared to step in as the starting quarterback.
