On this particular play, it wasn't a wheel route more so than a corner route, which is what makes this pass that much more impressing. Trubisky released before AR broke to the corner and by the time he did, the ball was dropped over his shoulder.
That's one thing that impresses me with Rodgers so much is his ability to release a ball before even his receivers know the ball is released, and place it exactly where it needs to be. That's why Rodgers can make a good group of receivers from a bunch of scrubs because as a corner you're always taught to play the ball based on what the receiver is telling you. When the receivers eyes go up, your eyes turn to the ball and your hands go up. It's impossible to defend when the ball is released even before the receiver knows it's released because as a corner with your back to the ball, you're given nothing to tell you when to get your head around.
If Trubisky can consistently add that element to his game, with these receivers, this offense will be elite.
