Pittsburgh Steelers fans were left holding their breath on Sunday as quarterback Aaron Rodgers was forced to exit the field against the Cincinnati Bengals.
Reports suggest the NFL veteran may have suffered a “slight break” in his left wrist, though further tests are needed to determine the severity.
A Veteran at the Top of His Game
At 41 years old, Rodgers is proving age is just a number in his first season with the Steelers.
He has guided Pittsburgh to the top of the AFC North, and his leadership has been a major factor in the team’s strong 6-4 record heading into the weekend matchup.
The Injury That Halted the Action
Although Rodgers throws with his right hand, the injury to his left wrist was serious enough to make him leave the game in the second quarter.
Despite his absence, the Steelers maintained control, securing a 34-12 victory over Cincinnati.
Next Steps for Rodgers
According to ESPN, Rodgers will undergo additional tests on Monday to determine the full extent of the injury and how long he may be sidelined.
Steelers fans and analysts alike are waiting to learn whether this setback will affect the team’s momentum for the rest of the season.
A Team Still Moving Forward
Even without their star quarterback for part of the game, the Steelers showed resilience and depth.
The win against the Bengals reinforces their position at the top of the AFC North, but Rodgers’ health will be closely monitored as Pittsburgh looks to continue its strong run.
