We have an update on Aaron Rodgers, the wounded quarterback for the Steelers, who departed Sunday’s 34–12 victory over the Bengals with a fractured left wrist.
Rodgers will not practice on Wednesday, according to NFL source Ian Rapoport, but he still hopes to play this weekend against the Bears, as was previously reported.
On Good Morning Football, Rapoport stated:
“Here’s the situation, and it is certainly more positive right now than it was, I would say, 48 hours ago. Aaron Rodgers does have a fracture in his left wrist. Tests show that he does not need surgery, as me and Tom Pelissero reported yesterday, and then Mike Tomlin confirmed,”
“Tomlin said pain tolerance is not an issue. Really what it’s gonna be is can they keep that wrist out of harm’s way? Is it stable enough? Can he grip a football? These are all the things that Rodgers is now dealing with. Not gonna practice today, but certainly could practice later in the week, and is pushing to play against his Bears.”

The conclusion: Rodgers, 41, will not practice on Wednesday, but it appears like he may do so later this week in order to participate in the game this weekend.
