Aaron Rodgers, Aaron Rodgers May Have "Slight Break" in Left Wrist, Likely Out for Week 12

There's "initial concern that Pittsburgh Steelers quarterback Aaron Rodgers has a "slight break" in his left wrist, according to ESPN's Adam Schefter. Schefter reports that Rodgers will undergo further testing on Monday, but it's "shaping up" to be Steelers backup quarterback Mason Rudolph who gets the start in Week 12 against the Chicago Bears. Rodgers was forced to exit early from Pittsburgh's Week 11 win over the Cincinnati Bengals. Rudolph played well after taking over for Rodgers against Cincinnati, completing 12 of 16 pass attempts for 127 yards, one touchdown, and zero interceptions. It's unclear exactly how long Rodgers will be sidelined, but it appears as though Rudolph will be forced into action in the short term.

Kenneth Gainwell, Kenneth Gainwell Catches Two Touchdown Passes in Elevated Role

Pittsburgh Steelers running back Kenneth Gainwell was a stud through the air during Sunday's game against the Cincinnati Bengals. Gainwell saw increased playing time with Jaylen Warren (ankle) barely playing in the second half. The 26-year-old rushed the ball nine times and was held to 26 yards on the ground. However, Gainwell was excellent in the receiving game this weekend. He hauled in seven of his eight targets for 81 yards and scored two touchdowns in the win. Gainwell could see a larger workload if Warren is forced to miss time. Fantasy managers will need to check back for another update. Gainwell could be a popular waiver wire addition ahead of the Week 12 matchup against the Chicago Bears.

Aaron Rodgers, Aaron Rodgers Has Left Wrist Injury, Due for More Testing Monday

Pittsburgh Steelers quarterback Aaron Rodgers (left wrist) will undergo additional testing on Monday morning after suffering a left wrist injury during Sunday's Week 11 win over the Cincinnati Bengals, head coach Mike Tomlin told the media. Tomlin did not provide any additional information on the veteran quarterback's status postgame. The veteran signal-caller completed nine of 15 passes for 116 yards, one touchdown, and zero interceptions during the victory. He also rushed for eight yards. Mason Rudolph led the Steelers the rest of the way, and he'd be in line to start Week 12 against the Chicago Bears if Rodgers isn't healthy enough to play.

Aaron Rodgers, Aaron Rodgers Injures Left Hand, Questionable to Return Against Bengals

Pittsburgh Steelers quarterback Aaron Rodgers (left hand) exited during the first half of Sunday's Week 11 contest against the Cincinnati Bengals. At halftime, the team announced that he is questionable to return. The veteran signal-caller had completed nine of 15 passes for 116 yards, one touchdown, and zero interceptions at the time of his departure. He also rushed for eight yards. Rodgers was replaced by Mason Rudolph, who will look to preserve Pittsburgh's lead in the second half. The Steelers face the Bears next Sunday, so if Rodgers can't return today, he'll have seven days to rest and recover before his next game.

Kenneth Gainwell, Kenneth Gainwell Set to Maintain Sizable Involvement

Pittsburgh Steelers running back Kenneth Gainwell continues to trend up ahead of Sunday's Week 11 contest against the Cincinnati Bengals. Gainwell is coming off a game against the Chargers that saw him play 52 percent of the offensive snaps, which was his third-highest mark of the season so far. Despite out-snapping Jaylen Warren, he had just two catches and zero carries. We expect to see Gainwell handle a sizable snap share once again after head coach Mike Tomlin told the media that Warren cannot occupy an every-down role. Whether this means the backfield will gradually shift to Gainwell remains to be seen. The comments are promising for Gainwell's managers, but it's too early to inject him into lineups after he touched the ball just twice last week. For now, he remains a bench stash.
