With the injury being on his left wrist, Aaron Rodgers' abilities shouldn't be too affected. His throwing arm is completely fine, and his left hand is mainly used for helping secure the ball in place of his right hand. The Steelers have not yet determined his availability for the Week 12 matchup against the Chicago Bears. But his participation in practice is a good sign for the club.

Rodgers managed to record 116 passing yards, one touchdown, and an interception while owning a 60.0% completion percentage against the Bengals. The Steelers were forced to sub Mason Rudolph into the game, who finished with 127 passing yards and a touchdown while completing 75.0% of his pass attempts.

The 21-year veteran has played in every game so far this season. In his first year in Pittsburgh, the Steelers quarterback has recorded 1,969 passing yards and 19 touchdowns. He also owns a 66.4% completion percentage. He's looked okay with the organization through 10 games. However, his 196.9 passing yards per game average is on pace for the lowest of his career since becoming a starter in 2008.
