Aaron Rodgers’ long-awaited return to Soldier Field probably won’t happen.
Rodgers got hurt Sunday in the Steelers’ 34-12 win over the Bengals, and ESPN reported he has “a slight break” in his non-throwing wrist. While there’s still hope that he’ll return this season, a fracture would make it highly unlikely he’d be available Nov. 23 when the Steelers visit the Bears.
If he’s out, the Bears would face backup quarterback Mason Rudolph instead. Rudolph has played in three games this season and has never faced the Bears.
Rodgers, 41, hasn’t played in Chicago since 2022 and has said he’s “pretty sure” this will be his last season.
