Steelers QB Aaron Rodgers will not need surgery on his broken left wrist, according to NFL Network's Tom Pelissero. HC Mike Tomlin, meanwhile, said that Rodgers will not practice on Wednesday and will likely test that wrist on Friday. It sounds like we won't get a good update on Rodgers until then, but he seemingly has a real chance to play against the Bears this weekend.

Steelers QB Aaron Rodgers (wrist) is "pushing to play" and is considered "50/50" for Sunday's game vs. the Bears, a source tells NFL Network's Ian Rapoport. Rodgers broke a bone in his left wrist in the Week 11 win over the Bengals. That's his non-throwing side, though, and Rodgers could be able to play if he's able to grip the ball and avoid making the injury worse. Rodgers is undergoing additional tests on the wrist on Monday. We'll keep you updated on his status throughout the week. QB Mason Rudolph will get the start if Rodgers is unable to play.

NFL Network's Tom Pelissero reports that Steelers QB Aaron Rodgers suffered a "small fracture" in his left wrist in Sunday's win over the Bengals. That sounds bad, but he adds that "the initial believe is it's nothing long term."

Steelers QB Aaron Rodgers is questionable to return to Sunday's game vs. the Bengals with a left hand injury. Rodgers banged the hand late in the first half and isn't on the field for the start of the second. Mason Rudolph is under center for Pittsburgh. We'll update Rodgers' status when we know more.

Winds are forecasted at 15-20 mph with gusts around 30-35 mph for today's Bengals-Steelers game. That figures to impact some long passes and kicks, although it's worth noting that the over/under on this game has held steady at 48.5. We're not adjusting projections in this one but might shy away from Ks Chris Boswell and Evan McPherson.

Steelers WR D.K. Metcalf put up his second straight dud game going 3-35-0 on 7 targets. This comes off the heels of a 2-6-0 game last week. The struggles of the Steelers’ passing game have affected Metcalf, especially with the slow pace of play for the Steelers. With QB Aaron Rodgers spreading the ball around, Metcalf’s floor will be near zero every week moving forward.

Steelers QB Aaron Rodgers accounted for all four of the team's TDs in Thursday night's loss to the Bengals. He extended a play (with surprising mobility for a 41-year-old!) to find TE Jonnu Smith in the end zone from 10 yards out in the first quarter. Rodgers later found TE Pat Freiermuth on a vintage anticipatory seam shot for a 19-yard score in the third quarter. His third score went to TE Darnell Washington from two yards out. Then Rodgers gave Pittsburgh a short-lived 31-30 lead in the fourth quarter, again buying extra time before finding Freiermuth deep downfield for a 68-yard TD. Rodgers finished with 249 yards, the four TDs, and two INTs.

Steelers QB Aaron Rodgers turned back the clock, completing 22 of 30 passes for 244 yards and 4 TDs in the Steelers’ win over the Jets. His arm showed fresh velocity reminiscent of his Packers days. He connected with seven different receivers, spreading the ball to the open man. The performance gives him streaming upside in favorable matchups.

The Dolphins have traded TE Jonnu Smith, CB Jalen Ramsey, and a 2027 Round 7 pick to the Steelers in exchange for S Minkah Fitzpatrick and a 2027 Round 5 pick.

QB Aaron Rodgers has informed the Steelers that he plans to sign and attend mini-camp. Rodgers had an offer from the team sitting for over two months, but was still mulling retirement. He provides a massive upgrade over QB Mason Rudolph, especially for WR D.K. Metcalf's fantasy outlook. Even so, Rodgers hardly inspires confidence that he will return to All-Pro form approaching age 42.

Saints QB Derek Carr has announced he'll retire. We already knew there was a chance he'd miss some or all of the coming season because of an injury to his right shoulder. But this news obviously heightens the importance of rookie QB Tyler Shough's quick development and/or another plan for a "bridge" starter.

ESPN's Peter Schrager revealed that Falcons QB Kirk Cousins could be the fallback option for the Steelers if Aaron Rodgers does not sign with the team. Their current depth chart consists of Mason Rudolph, Skylar Thompson, and rookie Will Howard, placing it among the worst in the NFL.

QB Aaron Rodgers said on the Pat McAfee Show that he's still considering retiring. He added that he has remained in touch with teams about playing this season but is currently focused on his personal life. "I’m open to anything and attached to nothing," Rodgers said. "Retirement could still be a possibility."

CBS Sports' Aditi Kinkhabwala reports that the Steelers have not gotten an update on QB Aaron Rodgers' plans since their March 21 meeting. "Aaron Rodgers is more likely to retire than sign with a team that's not a Super Bowl contender," Kinkhabwala adds.

Steelers owner Art Rooney II said Tuesday that he expects his team to sign free agent QB Aaron Rodgers. “We keep hearing that he’s headed in our direction,” Rooney said at the NFL owners meetings, via the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette. “I’d say we feel pretty good about it at this time.” Rooney added that he's willing to wait "a little longer" to get an answer from Rodgers. Rodgers initially met with the Steelers on March 21.

The Vikings have been linked to free-agent QB Aaron Rodgers in recent weeks. Minnesota is Rodgers' preferred destination, according to ESPN's Adam Schefter. GM Kwesi Adofo-Mensah didn't exactly squash the rumors when asked about Rodgers on Wednesday. "For me to sit here and say that anything's 100 percent forever, that's just not the job," Adofo-Mensah said. "We're responding to scenarios and different information as it comes. So obviously things can change, but right now we're really happy with our [quarterback] room and we're going to look to upgrade it in different ways." Adofo-Mensah added that J.J. McCarthy as the starting QB is "the outcome we want" and "the outcome we're headed towards."

The Giants have agreed to a two-year deal with QB Jameis Winston. NFL Network reports that it's worth $8 million total, clear backup money at the position. FOX Sports' Jordan Schultz adds, however, that incentives could push it as high as $16 million. Winston spent last year with the Browns after four seasons with the Saints. He turned 31 in January.
