The Bears’ owner won’t play Sunday.
Steelers quarterback Aaron Rodgers won’t face the Bears at Soldier Field, Steelers coach Mike Tomlin told CBS about two hours before kickoff at the Lakefront.
“He fought his tail off all week, but that’s the prudent play for us to make as a collective,” Tomlin said.
Rodgers broke his left wrist a week ago against the Bengals. He wore a brace and was limited in practice Thursday and Friday. He said Thursday he wanted to play at Soldier Field, where he is 13-3 in his career, all as a member of the rival Packers.
