Steelers QB Aaron Rodgers adamant about playing despite multiple fractures in left wrist

Our Summary

Aaron Rodgers is set to start for the Pittsburgh Steelers against the Buffalo Bills, despite having three fractures in his left wrist. Rodgers, determined to play after missing last week's narrow loss to the Chicago Bears, completed two full practices by the week's end. Head coach Mike Tomlin confirmed Rodgers' readiness for the crucial Week 13 game.

The matchup holds significant implications for the Steelers' standings in the AFC North and the wild-card race. Pittsburgh has the opportunity to gain a game lead over the Baltimore Ravens, who lost to the Cincinnati Bengals on Thanksgiving. A win would also level the Steelers' and Bills' records at 7-5, giving Pittsburgh an edge in playoff tiebreakers.
