Aaron Rodgers, Aaron Rodgers Playing Through Multiple Wrist Fractures

Updating a previous report, Pittsburgh Steelers veteran quarterback Aaron Rodgers (wrist) has been cleared to play on Sunday against the Buffalo Bills in Week 13, but NFL Network's Ian Rapoport reports that the future Hall of Fame signal-caller will be playing through at least three fractures in his left (non-throwing) wrist. Rodgers' main wrist fracture was non-displaced, though, which means he was able to avoid surgery. He will be back on the field in Week 13 after sitting out the team's Week 12 loss to the Chicago Bears. Rapoport reports that Rodgers has gained even more respect in Pittsburgh because of how he's handled this injury. Rodgers' left-wrist fractures shouldn't really affect him throwing the football, but he could have difficulty taking snaps under center on Sunday. Fantasy managers should consider him a low-end QB2/high-end QB3 against the visiting Bills.

Aaron Rodgers, Aaron Rodgers Set to Play on Sunday

Pittsburgh Steelers quarterback Aaron Rodgers (wrist) is set to start against the Buffalo Bills in Week 13. Rodgers plans to suit up despite having multiple broken bones in his left (non-throwing) wrist. He sat out last week's game which forced Mason Rudolph into the starting role against the Chicago Bears. It appears Rodgers is feeling good enough to play after a week to rest. The injury shouldn't impact his throwing ability, but Rodgers isn't a great fantasy option anyway. He should be viewed on the lower end of QB2s for this weekend.

Calvin Austin III, Calvin Austin III is Not Worth the Risk

Pittsburgh Steelers wide receiver Calvin Austin III is looking to make an impact after posting a few duds recently. Austin has been held to 36 receiving yards or fewer in each of his last three games. The 26-year-old has also seen his snap count decrease heavily over the last two contests. There is certainly some decent upside with Austin, but he's not getting the playing time to be fantasy relevant right now. It's tough to trust him as anything more than a low-end flex option for the upcoming Week 13 matchup against the Buffalo Bills.

Jonnu Smith, Jonnu Smith in a Limited Role, Difficult to Trust vs. the Bills

Pittsburgh Steelers tight end Jonnu Smith has seen limited work in the offense over the last few weeks. Since Week 10, Smith has seen a combined seven targets and two rushing attempts. The 30-year-old has yet to be a consistent fantasy option and has only had two productive weeks this season. Entering Week 13, Smith will face a tough Buffalo Bills passing defense that has allowed the fewest receiving yards this season. However, the Bills' run defense has allowed the third-most rushing yards this season. The Steelers' offense may want to establish the run game early against a run-funnel Bills defense and take pressure off quarterback Aaron Rodgers (wrist), who is still battling a left wrist injury. Smith is difficult to trust for fantasy managers heading into Week 13 and is mainly an option in deep leagues.

Chris Boswell, Chris Boswell a Must-Start at Home in Week 13

Pittsburgh Steelers kicker Chris Boswell was quiet in last week's loss to the Chicago Bears, but he should bounce back in Week 13 against the Buffalo Bills. Although the Bills haven't given up a ton of fantasy production to kickers, their defense has been subpar overall, allowing nearly 23 points per game. With this contest taking place in Pittsburgh, Boswell's outlook only improves. The 34-year-old has scored at least nine fantasy points in all five of his matchups at Acrisure Stadium this season and is averaging more than five additional fantasy points per game at home than on the road. The inconsistent play of the Steelers' offense caps his reliability a bit, but not enough to remove him from starting consideration. Boswell profiles as a top-10 option on Sunday.
