In the compressed rhythm of a professional football week, Aaron Rodgers stood at practice Thursday wearing the visible evidence of uncertainty — a stabilizer on his left wrist, his presence limited but present. The veteran quarterback, who had been absent entirely the day before, now faces a narrowing window to prove to himself and his team that he can absorb the physical demands of Sunday's division rivalry against the Bears. What unfolds in the next 48 hours will determine not just who starts, but how much risk a team is willing to carry into a consequential game.
