Bridgewater had 9.25 size hands and he had to play outdoors in Minnesota and did just fine.

Rodgers claims 10 1/8th for hand size. Read the article.
There are more reports of hand size being an issue for QBs than it not being a problem. Kaepernick has a cannon and look what happened ->
"But if you watch Kaepernick throw the ball from a clean pocket, it almost looks like he shot-puts the ball. I checked to see what his hand size was — just because I didn’t remember that from the combine. He actually has small hands. So I’m wondering if he really just couldn’t throw the ball effectively in this kind of weather. Troy Aikman always said, “I couldn’t throw a wet ball.” Some quarterbacks can’t do this. And he sort of shot-put that ball, so he missed that throw, he left it well short. And then of course, his final throw of the game, he had McDonald wide open and made a bad throw."
