Jarrett BaileyFri, November 28, 2025 at 7:08 PM UTC·1 min readThere has been a ton of speculation leading into the Pittsburgh Steelers’ Week 13 matchup with the Buffalo Bills regarding the health of Aaron Rodgers and his injured left wrist. The four-time MVP missed Pittsburgh’s Week 12 tilt with the Chicago Bears, which they lost 31-28 and fell to 6-5 on the season. However, Rodgers won’t miss a second consecutive game.
Rodgers will be starting against the Bills. Mike Tomlin addressed the media on Friday and said Rodgers has no game designation, meaning he is good to go. Tomlin also said both DK Metcalf and Alex Highsmith will play.
Should the Steelers defeat the Bills, they will hold the AFC North lead after the Baltimore Ravens were defeated on Thanksgiving night by the Cincinnati Bengals. Josh Allen has a 4-1 record against the Steelers, with the only loss coming in Week 1 of the 2021 season.
