NFL Network’s Tom Pelissero reports Aaron Rodgers (wrist) won’t require surgery.

18 November 2025

Rodgers, after breaking his wrist in Week 11 against the Bengals, is “push to play” this week against the Bears, per Pelissero. He will need to approval of team doctors before he gets the green light for Week 12. If Rodgers can’t suit up, Mason Rudolph would get the start against Chicago. Last week against the Bengals, Rudolph completed 12 of 16 passes for 127 yards and a touchdown. Steelers pass catchers would not see a downgrade if Rudolph gets the nod. He should be rostered in most superflex leagues.
