Aaron Rodgers and first-place Steelers confident in their passing game options after quiet deadline

  • On Nov. 2, Aaron Rodgers appeared to jam a finger on his right hand during pregame warmups, but Pittsburgh Steelers had not changed his status five minutes before the 1 p.m. ET scheduled kickoff.
  • The injury appears to have happened when Aaron Rodgers took a snap from Steelers starting center Zach Frazier, with analysts noting backup-center snaps often cause finger jams, Tony Romo said.
  • On-Air commentators observed that CBS cameras showed Aaron Rodgers continuing to throw during warmups while Matt Ryan and Tony Romo speculated the hand issue occurred taking snaps.
  • If Rodgers cannot play, Rudolph would take over behind center as the only other healthy quarterback on the Pittsburgh Steelers' active Week 9 roster, having appeared in two games this season.
  • Three weeks after the Indianapolis Colts scratched two players before their Week 6 game due to warmup injuries, Steelers coach Mike Tomlin said Howard returned to practice two weeks ago, opening his 21-day return window.
