Pittsburgh quarterback Aaron Rodgers is questionable to play on Sunday at Chicago because of a fracture in his left (non-throwing) wrist, Steelers coach Mike Tomlin said on Friday.
Rodgers, 41, missed practice on Wednesday and was a limited participant on Thursday and Friday.
'I thought I saw a solid effort,' Tomlin told reporters. 'But it's Friday. We've still got some time. He was listed as a partial participant and given a questionable designation and we'll see where the weekend leads us.'
The quarterback injured his left wrist and exited the Steelers' 34-12 win over the Cincinnati Bengals last Sunday. Backup Mason Rudolph finished the game and is in line to start if Rodgers isn't able.
Rodgers has completed 66.4% of his passes (192 of 289) for 1,969 yards, 19 touchdowns and seven interceptions in 10 games this season, his first with Pittsburgh.
With the Steelers (6-4) clinging to a slim lead in the AFC North, Pittsburgh could opt to protect Rodgers from further injury.
However, Rodgers is more than familiar with the Week 12 opponent, the NFC North-leading Bears (7-3).
If he is able to play, Sunday would be the 30th career game for Rodgers against the Bears. He's 24-5 all-time with 64 touchdowns and 10 interceptions from his time playing the Bears as a Green Bay Packer from 2008-22 -- 25-5 overall including a victory in the 2010 NFC Championship Game.
