Aaron Rodgers exited in the second quarter of the divisional win for the Pittsburgh Steelers on Sunday. Now, he, per reporting since this evening, could potentially be out for an extent of time as this season comes down the stretch.

According to ESPN’s Adam Schefter, Rodgers suffered an apparent “slight break” of the wrist of his left hand. He’ll now undergo testing tomorrow with the results of that to determine how long he could now be out for Pittsburgh, with Schefter since adding that it’s “shaping up to be Steelers QB Mason Rudolph vs. the Bears next week”.

“The initial concern is that Aaron Rodgers has, in the words of one source, “a slight break” his left wrist, but the Steelers quarterback will undergo further testing Monday to determine the full extent of the injury and how long he’ll be sidelined, per league sources,” Schefter tweeted out on Sunday evening.

Those at the NFL Network have since reported further on the injury for Rodgers. Tom Pelissero noted that what they’ve determined at this point as “a small fracture” is believed to be “nothing long term”, while Ian Rapoport added that Rodgers has supposedly said himself to people that he doesn’t expect to be out for long.
