Jaylen Warren, Jaylen Warren Says He Could Have Returned from Ankle Injury in Week 11

Pittsburgh Steelers running back Jaylen Warren (ankle) was forced to exit early from his team's 34-12 Week 11 win over the Cincinnati Bengals due to an ankle injury. However, Warren said after the game that he "could have (played), but (not returning) was part of being smart," per Chris Adamski of the Pittsburgh Tribune-Review. Warren's status for Week 12 against the Chicago Bears is unclear, but it seems he may have avoided a serious injury. Before leaving the game, Warren recorded 67 scrimmage yards on 12 touches. Steelers running back Kenneth Gainwell took advantage of the additional playing time in Warren's absence, hauling in seven receptions for 81 yards and two touchdowns to go along with 24 rushing yards on nine carries. The Steelers' running back situation will be one for fantasy managers to closely monitor this week. If Warren is unable to go, Gainwell could be a must-start fantasy running back in Week 12 against Chicago.

Aaron Rodgers, Aaron Rodgers Dealing With a Wrist Fracture, Pushing to Play Sunday

NFL insider Ian Rapoport mentioned on Good Morning Football that Pittsburgh Steelers quarterback Aaron Rodgers (wrist) is dealing with a fracture in his left wrist, but has not been ruled out for Sunday and is pushing to play. Rodgers missed the entire second half of Sunday's game with the injury, and backup quarterback Mason Rudolph played great, completing 12 of 16 passes for 116 yards and a touchdown. If Rodgers were to miss time, Rudolph, who does have 32 career NFL games under his belt, is a solid backup quarterback who can certainly keep the Steelers afloat. Through 11 weeks of the season, Rodgers has thrown for 1,969 yards, 17 touchdowns, and seven interceptions, and has been a fantasy streamer quarterback at best at this point in his career. The Steelers face the Chicago Bears in Week 12, who allow the third most points to the quarterback position in fantasy football, making Rudolph a solid QB2 streamer if Rodgers doesn't go.

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.
