With hopes of playing vs. Bears, injured Steelers QB Aaron Rodgers is limited in practice Thursday

It sounds increasingly likely the Steelers will let quarterback Aaron Rodgers make the call on whether he plays Sunday at Soldier Field against the Bears. And given his history with them, it’s hard to imagine he’d miss what likely would be his final game in Chicago.

Rodgers returned to practice Thursday in a limited capacity and worked with a black brace or cast on his left, non-throwing wrist in videos posted by Pittsburgh reporters. He suffered a small fracture there during the Steelers’ 34-12 win over the Bengals on Sunday.

Coach Mike Tomlin said this week that Rodgers’ input would be “a component” of the decision on whether he plays and sounded somewhat upbeat about his outlook.
