Three turnovers in loss
Roethlisberger (pectoral/shoulder) completed 24 of 41 pass attempts for 263 yards, a touchdown, two interceptions and two fumbles (one lost) in Sunday's 41-10 loss to the Bengals.
Analysis: Roethlisberger was banged up heading into the contest, but he was cleared of any injury designations prior to kickoff. Injuries or not, the veteran quarterback failed at protecting the football and the Steelers went down big early and failed to recover. Big Ben's arm can't produce the gaudy passing totals from his younger years (only one game over 300 yards this season), so multiple turnover games like this one kill his fantasy value. The 39-year-old was coming off of a five-game streak with no…read more

Ready for Sunday
Roethlisberger (pectoral/right shoulder) doesn't have a designation for Sunday's game at Cincinnati, Brooke Pryor of ESPN.com reports.
Analysis: Roethlisberger has been tending to a left pectoral injury for much of the campaign, and he predictably was listed as limited on the Steelers' first two Week 12 practice reports. But he proceeded to put in a limited showing Friday to clear him for Sunday. Roethlisberger thus will take on a Bengals defense that ranks 24th against the pass (254.9 yards per game).

Limited in practice still
Roethlisberger (pectoral/shoulder) was a limited practice participant Wednesday.
Analysis: He's been playing through the same pair of injuries all season, and while it's largely been a struggle for Roethlisberger and the Pittsburgh offense, he overcame a bout with COVID-19 to finish last week's 41-37 loss to the Chargers included 273 passing yards and three touchdowns. He'll now head to Cincinnati to face a Bengals defense that held him to 318 yards, one touchdown and two interceptions on 58 pass attempts back in Week 3, when the Steelers lost 24-10 in a game where they ran nearly…read more

Strong comeback effort in return
Roethlisberger (illness) completed 28 of 44 pass attempts for 273 yards and three touchdowns in Sunday's 41-37 loss to the Chargers.
Analysis: Roethlisberger was cleared and activated off the reserve/COVID-19 list after missing one game with illness. The veteran signal caller led an incredible comeback attempt after being down 17 points in the fourth quarter. The Steelers' banged up defense was unable to hold the lead, but it was still an impressive effort from Roethlisberger and company. The 39-year-old has turned things around after a rough start to the season, posting a 9:0 TD:INT over his last five contests. Roethlisberger will…read more

Officially activated
Roethlisberger was activated from the reserve/COVID-19 list Saturday.
Analysis: This move was expected, and now the team has made it official. Roethlisberger will return from a one-game absence and retake the Steelers' starting job under center Sunday against the Chargers, pushing Mason Rudolph back into the backup role. Roethlisberger's return should be a boon to all of the Steelers' pass catchers, especially top wide receiver Diontae Johnson.

Set to be activated
Roethlisberger will be activated from the reserve/COVID-19 list Saturday and will fly to Los Angeles in anticipation of starting Sunday's prime-time contest against the Chargers, Brooke Pryor of ESPN.com reports.
Analysis: Roethlisberger is expected to fly separately from his teammates, but the expectation is that he'll start Sunday's contest after testing positive for the virus Nov. 13 and missing last week's tie to the Lions. Coach Mike Tomlin previously stated the veteran quarterback is capable of executing the game plan without practicing, so it seems like all systems go for the 39-year-old.

Staying prepared for Week 11 start
Roethlisberger (illness) remains on the reserve/COVID-19 list as of Friday, but he's taken part in virtual meetings this week and is staying prepared to start Sunday against the Chargers, Brooke Pryor of ESPN.com reports.
Analysis: Roethlisberger tested positive for the virus Nov. 13 and sat out the Steelers' 16-16 tie with the Lions a day later, but because he's vaccinated, he'll be eligible to rejoin the team as soon as he's symptom-free for 48-hour period and submits two negative COVID-19 tests taken 24 hours apart. As Pryor notes, the Steelers can activate Roethlisberger from the reserve/COVID-19 list before Saturday's 4 p.m. ET deadline for Week 11 roster moves even if he hasn't fully cleared all protocols, but he…read more

No practice needed to play
Coach Mike Tomlin said Tuesday that Roethlisberger (illness) doesn't need to practice this week in order to play in Sunday's road game versus the Chargers, The Athletic reports.
Analysis: Instead, Roethlisberger will be subject to COVID-19 protocols after testing positive for the virus Saturday, causing him to miss this past Sunday's tie with the Lions. As a vaccinated player, he must be without symptoms and return two negative tests 24 hours apart to be able to return in Week 11. Roethlisberger will take part in virtual meetings until he does so to remain ready in the event he is cleared to suit up, but if he isn't the Steelers will make sure Mason Rudolph is prepared in case…read more

Tests positive for virus
Roethlisberger's placement on the reserve/COVID-19 list Saturday was the result of a positive test, Ian Rapoport of NFL Network reports. He'll be sidelined for Sunday's game against the Lions as a result.
Analysis: According to Rapoport, Roethlisberger informed the team Saturday that he was experiencing symptoms of the virus, and he was then quickly ruled out for the Week 10 contest when his COVID-19 test returned positive. During an appearance on "The Dan Patrick Show" earlier this month, Roethlisberger said he's vaccinated, so if that's the case, he'll be eligible to rejoin the Steelers as soon as he's no longer exhibiting symptoms and has submitted two negative COVID-19 tests at least 24 hours apart.…read more

Ruled out Sunday
Roethlisberger has been placed on the reserve/COVID-19 list and won't play Sunday against the Lions.
Analysis: It's not yet clear whether Roethlisberger has tested positive for the virus, but he'll be forced to miss his first game of the season. However, the 39-year-old has said that he's vaccinated, so he'll presumably have a chance to return for the team's Week 11 matchup against the Chargers on Nov. 21, Chris Adamski of TribLive.com reports. Mason Rudolph will likely draw the start for the Steelers on Sunday.

Cleared to play Sunday
Roethlisberger (pectoral/right shoulder) does not carry an injury designation for Sunday's game against the Lions after returning to a full practice Friday.
Analysis: Roethlisberger was listed as a DNP both Wednesday and Thursday, but given that he logged a full session Friday, it's plausible that the Steelers simply were managing his practice reps on a short week following the team's 29-27 win over the Bears on Monday. Though Roethlisberger won't have wideout Chase Claypool (toe) to throw to this weekend, he has a favorable matchup in Week 10, at home versus an 0-8 Detroit squad that has allowed an average of 30.5 points per game to date.

Misses another practice
Roethlisberger (pectoral/right shoulder) didn't practice again Thursday, Teresa Varley of the Steelers' official site reports.
Analysis: With back-to-back DNPs on Wednesday and Thursday, Roethlisberger's participation level Friday will be pivotal with regard to his Week 10 status. Per Brooke Pryor of ESPN.com, the QB's absences could be precautionary, with the Steelers on a short week after having played this past Monday. Meanwhile, Dale Lolley of DKPittsburghSports.com expects Roethlisberger to play Sunday against the Lions, but the signal-caller presumably needs to practice fully Friday in order to avoid approaching the…read more

Roethlisberger was held out of Wednesday's practice with shoulder and pectoral injuries, Ray Fittipaldo of the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette reports.
Analysis: He's also been listed with a hip injury at times this season, but Roethlisberger is expected to continue playing through pain in what may be end up being his final NFL campaign. Roethlisberger and the Steelers play host to the Lions this Sunday in Pittsburgh.

Engineers comeback win
Roethlisberger completed 21 of 30 passes for 205 yards and two touchdowns in Monday night's 29-27 win over the Bears.
Analysis: Roethlisberger found rookie tight end Pat Freiermuth for both of his touchdowns, but his night was highlighted by a final drive that put Pittsburgh in range for the game-winning field goal. The veteran found Diontae Johnson on a 22-yard gain with just over a minute remaining, then hit Freiermuth for 13 more yards shortly afterwards for good measure. In doing so, he helped the Steelers earn a fourth straight victory, a span that's coincided with Roethlisberger throwing zero interceptions. The…read more

All clear for Monday
Roethlisberger (shoulder) does not carry an injury designation into Monday's contest against the Bears, Brooke Pryor of ESPN.com reports.
Analysis: Roethlisberger was a full participant in Saturday's practice following coach Mike Tomlin's comments reiterating the veteran quarterback would have no issues playing Monday. The Bears allow the 11th-fewest passing yards to opposing quarterbacks (232.5), but will be without star pass rusher Khalil Mack (foot) heading into the prime-time battle.

Dealing with shoulder issue
Roethlisberger (pectoral/hip) has a shoulder injury and was a limited participant at Friday's practice, Brooke Pryor of ESPN.com reports.
Analysis: Roethlisberger was also limited Thursday with the pectoral and hip injuries, but the shoulder issue is a new addition to the injury report. The veteran signal-caller still appears on track for Monday's matchup with the Bears given he was still able to practice in some capacity, but he's clearly less than 100 percent.

Analysis: Roethlisberger also was limited to start the Steelers' Week 8 preparations before logging a full practice last Thursday and approaching the team's contest against the Browns minus an injury designation. Expect that pattern to be repeated this week, only with his first full session in line to occur Friday, with Pittsburgh facing Chicago on Monday night.

Modest showing in win
Roethlisberger completed 22 of 34 passes for 266 yards and one touchdown during Sunday's 15-10 win over the Browns.
Analysis: Roethlisberger tossed a two-yard touchdown to rookie tight end Pat Freiermuth to give Pittsburgh its first and only lead of the day. The veteran signal-caller and the Steelers offense haven't been consistently productive yet this season, but they've done enough over the past few weeks to string together three straight victories. Roethlisberger is completing 65.1 percent of his passes for 1,781 yards with eight touchdowns and four interceptions through the first seven games of the year.

Full-go Thursday
Roethlisberger (pectoral/hip) returned to a full practice Thursday.
Analysis: Roethlisberger was a limited practice participant Wednesday, as he continues to manage pectoral and hip issues, but Thursday's full session puts the 39-year-old signal-caller on track to face the 4-3 Browns in an NFC North showdown on Sunday. Six games into his 2021 campaign, Roethlisberger has thrown seven touchdown passes versus four picks, while averaging 252.5 passing yards, en route to having logged just one 300-plus yard effort.

Analysis: He's still managing the same pair of lingering injuries after a Week 7 bye, but Roethlisberger should be ready for Sunday's game against the Browns. He's thrown only seven touchdown passes in six games, averaging 252.5 passing yards with just one outing of 300-plus yards.

Roethlisberger (pectoral/hip) completed 29 of 40 pass attempts for 229 yards and a touchdown in Sunday's 23-20 overtime win over Seattle.
Analysis: Roethlisberger has been battling injuries and declining production this entire season, but he managed to limit his mistakes and look like his old self at times in this contest, standing tall in the pocket on multiple occasions and keeping drives moving. The 39-year-old may never return to the vertical throwing style that made him a fantasy stalwart for many seasons, but perhaps the extra rest of the upcoming bye week may help Big Ben settle somewhere in between there and the ugly play we saw…read more

Tops 250 yards in win
Roethlisberger completed 15 of 25 passes for 253 yards and two touchdowns in Sunday's 27-19 win over the Broncos.
Analysis: Roethlisberger had a season-low 25 pass attempts in Sunday's Week 5 matchup as the Steelers relied more on their rushing attack, but the 39-year-old still recorded multiple touchdowns for the first time in 2021. He dealt with pectoral and hip injuries following last week's contest and appeared to hurt his hand in the second half against the Broncos, but he was still able to play every snap. Roethlisberger will have a more favorable matchup against the Seahawks in Week 6.

His return to full activity a day later confirms as much, but that doesn't necessarily mean fantasy managers can deploy him with much confidence in a matchup with a tough defense.

Doesn't practice, plans to play
Roethlisberger (hip/pectoral) didn't practice Wednesday, but he intends to play in Sunday's game against the Broncos, Ray Fittipaldo of the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette reports.
Analysis: The veteran quarterback picked up a hip injury on top of his lingering pectoral injury during the Steelers' Week 4 loss to the Packers. He may continue to have limited practice reps followed by full workloads on Sundays, for however long he's able to maintain that in a Pittsburgh offense with shaky line play.

Analysis: Already this season, Roethlisberger has tended to a left pectoral injury, which kept him out of some practices the past two weeks. Still, he was able to overcome it and suit up Weeks 3 and 4. Coach Mike Tomlin told Dale Lolley of DKPittsburghSports.com that Roethlisberger may have his practice reps capped yet again this week.

Lackluster results against Packers
Roethlisberger completed 26 of 40 passes for 232 yards, a touchdown and an interception in Sunday's 27-17 loss to the Packers.
Analysis: Roethlisberger dealt with a pectoral injury early in the week, but his passing volume remained high in Sunday's Week 4 matchup. He's now logged at least 40 pass attempts in each of the last three games. However, the 39-year-old averaged just 5.8 yards per attempt and was unable to generate much fantasy production against Green Bay's defense.

Busy but ineffective in Week 4
Roethlisberger completed 38 of 58 passes for 318 yards, one touchdown and two interceptions in Sunday's 24-10 loss to the Bengals. He added five yards on his lone rushing attempt.
Analysis: Roethlisberger got off to an atrocious start, going 3-for-7 for eight yards and an interception over Pittsburgh's first three drives. He settled down after that and adapted to the absence of favorite receiver Diontae Johnson (knee), finding rookie tight end Pat Freiermuth for a four-yard touchdown to tie the game late in the second quarter.

For his part, the QB noted Wednesday that he plans to do "everything he can" to be available this weekend, Brooke Pryor of ESPN reports.

Nursing pectoral injury
Steelers head coach Mike Tomlin said Tuesday that Roethlisberger is tending to a left pectoral injury that will affect the quarterback's preparation for Sunday's game against the Bengals, Aditi Kinkhabwala of NFL Network reports. "We'd better be ready to be adjustable," Tomlin said of Roethlisberger's injury situation.
Analysis: Roethlisberger presumably sustained the injury during one of the 10 hits -- including two sacks -- he took in the Steelers' Week 2 home loss to the Raiders. Based on how Tomlin talked about Roethlisberger's injury, the Steelers still anticipate that the veteran quarterback will be ready to play Sunday, though his practice reps will likely be affected while he manages the sore pec.

Unspectacular in loss
Roethlisberger completed 27 of his 40 passes for 295 yards, one touchdown and one interception in Sunday's Week 2 loss to the Raiders.
Analysis: Roethlisberger showed some ability to throw the deep ball, as he connected with both Chase Claypool and Diontae Johnson for long receptions. However, the Steelers offense struggled to get going at any point in the game, in part due to Roethlisberger's 7.4 yards per attempt. Despite his own struggles, Roethlisberger largely did enough to sustain his receiver's ability to produce, as Claypool totaled 70 receiving yards and Johnson 105.

Roethlisberger completed 18 of 32 passes for 188 yards with one touchdown and no interceptions in the Steelers' 23-16 win over the Bills on Sunday. He also fumbled once, but it was recovered by the offense.
Analysis: Neither offense could get much of anything going in the first half, but Roethlisberger was able to do enough in the second half to help the Steelers gut out a big upset victory. His one touchdown pass put Pittsburgh ahead for good as well, with Big Ben finding Diontae Johnson for a highlight-reel scoring connection in the back corner of the end zone early in the fourth quarter.

Impresses in preseason debut
Roethlisberger completed eight of 10 passes for 137 yards with two touchdowns and no interceptions in the Steelers' 26-20 preseason win over the Lions on Saturday night.
Analysis: Big Ben had been a spectator for Pittsburgh's first two preseason contests, but he looked in mid-season form during his time on the field Saturday night. The 18-year veteran got cooking on Pittsburgh's second possession, authoring a nine-play, 82-yard march that he capped off with an 11-yard touchdown toss to rookie Pat Freiermuth. Roethlisberger went right back to the towering tight end to cap off the Steelers' third drive, connecting with the Penn State product from eight yards away for his…read more

To play preseason Week 2
Coach Mike Tomlin said Roethlisberger will suit up in preseason Week 2 against the Lions, Dale Lolley of DKPittsburghSports.com reports.
Analysis: With two exhibitions behind the Steelers, Roethlisberger has yet to see the field, so it appears the team's annual dress rehearsal for the regular season will come Saturday, Aug. 21. Typically, that equates to at least a handful of possessions and potentially means the veteran quarterback plays into the second quarter. Once Roethlisberger yields the offense to reserve QBs, Tomlin likely will go with Mason Rudolph, Dwayne Haskins and Joshua Dobbs, in order, to close out the game.

Sitting for second preseason game
Roethlisberger won't play in Thursday's preseason game against the Eagles, Chris Adamski of TribLive.com reports.
Analysis: Roethlisberger didn't take the field in Thursday's Hall of Fame Game against Dallas, and he'll continue to rest early in the preseason as he prepares for his age-39 campaign. Mason Rudolph will start Thursday's game once again, while Dwayne Haskins will finish the first half before Joshua Dobbs enters the game to close out the matchup.

Analysis: The same applies to other key veteran players like Cam Heyward and Joe Haden, among others. Head coach Mike Tomlin said Mason Rudolph will start against the Cowboys and Dwayne Haskins will finish the first half under center, while Josh Dobbs will enter the contest in the second half.

Looks slimmer to begin camp
Roethlisberger appeared to have slimmed down when he arrived at training camp Wednesday, Adam Schefter of ESPN reports.
Analysis: Roethlisberger has been one of the heaviest quarterbacks in the league during his 13-year career, but he was sporting a visibly slimmer physique in what could be his final year in the NFL, according to Dale Lolley of DKPittsburghSports.com. The 39-year-old ranked third in the league with 608 pass attempts in 2020, but he averaged just 6.3 yards per attempt and threw four interceptions during Pittsburgh's playoff loss to the Browns.

Ready to retire after 2021?
Roethlisberger seems likely to retire after the 2021 season, according to Dale Lolley of DK Pittsburgh Sports.
Analysis: The 39-year-old quarterback took a pay cut in early March, agreeing to a new contract with four voidable seasons after 2021. There was some thought he might retire following the playoff loss to Cleveland in January, but Roethlisberger waited only a few weeks before openly discussing his plans to return. He'll again have a talented group of pass catchers at his disposal, and the Steelers hope the addition of rookie RB Najee Harris will help create a more balanced offense after Roethlisberger led…read more

Takes pay cut
Roethlisberger's re-worked contract with the Steelers frees up about $15 million in immediate salary cap space for the team, NFL.com's Nick Shook reports.
Analysis: Roethlisberger, whose 2021 salary went from $19 million to $14 million per his new agreement, had been slated to carry a $41.25 million cap hit this coming season. The veteran QB's restructured deal helps the Steelers salary cap situation as free agency approaches and should help the franchise better address its needs at other positions.

Signs new deal for 2021
The Steelers have signed Roethlisberger to a new contract for the 2021 season.
Analysis: While the details of his 2021 compensation have yet to be released, it's assumed that the QB's existing contract was re-worked in order to reduce his salary cap hit, which was previously scheduled to be $41.25 million. With Roethlisberger's services having been secured for the coming season, the Steelers will now have decisions to make with regard to other key offensive cogs, WR JuJu Smith-Schuster and RB James Conner, who are both eligible to become free agents later this month.

Analysis: Rooney met with Roethlisberger on Tuesday and released a statement about the franchise quarterback Wednesday. While his statement acknowledges that Roethlisberger's contract situation still needs to be addressed, Rooney all but confirmed that the soon-to-be 39-year-old will be the Steelers' starting quarterback for at least one more season.

Will start for Steelers in 2021
Roethlisberger is expected to be the Steelers' starting quarterback in 2021, Aditi Kinkhabwala of NFL Network reports. "[The Steelers] want Ben back and will contact me soon to address his cap situation," Roethlisberger's agent Ryan Tollner said. "We are happy to creatively adjust his contract to help them build the best team possible."
Analysis: As it stands, Roethlisberger will carry a $41.25 million cap hit, but he has already signaled that he's willing to restructure his deal to bring that number down as the Steelers look to defend their AFC North title. In his first season after elbow surgery, Roethlisberger was clearly less than 100 percent, particularly with the deep ball. He still completed 66 percent of his passes for 3,803 yards (6.3 YPA), 33 touchdowns and 10 interceptions. Roethlisberger turns 39 years old in March, and…read more

May not be lock to return
Steelers general manager Kevin Colbert didn't give a strong endorsement for Roethlisberger being the team's starting quarterback in 2021, Brooke Pryor of ESPN.com reports. "As we sit here, Ben is a member of the Pittsburgh Steelers," Colbert said Wednesday. " He reiterated to us that he wants to continue to play. We told him we have to look at this current situation."
Analysis: Roethlisberger hasn't publicly declared his intention to play another season, but he strongly hinted at it in late January, when he said he "doesn't care" about his 2021 compensation and is willing to restructure his contract to help the Steelers stay under the salary cap. He's scheduled for a $41 million cap hit, and while the Steelers shouldn't have too much trouble lowering that number, it might have a cost in terms of future cap ramifications.

Planning to play another season?
Roethlisberger told Ed Bouchette of The Athletic that he "doesn't care" about his 2021 compensation and is willing to restructure his contract to help the Steelers stay under the salary cap.
Analysis: Roethlisberger certainly won't play for free, but it sounds like he wants to work something out to lower his $41 million cap hit for 2021. It'll be the second and final season of a two-year extension, so reducing the cap charge requires another extension or an outright pay cut. Details aside, Roethlisberger's comments on Thursday give us a solid hint he intends to play at least one more season, assuming he can work a deal out with the Steelers.

Optimism regarding 2021 return
There's reportedly optimism within the Pittsburgh organization that Roethlisberger will return to the team in 2021, Adam Maya of NFL.com reports.
Analysis: With that in mind, coach Mike Tomlin noted this past week that a Roethlisberger return would be welcomed by the team. If the veteran QB does stick around for the 2021 campaign he'd be working with a new offensive coordinator, with Randy Fichtner no longer on the job. Per the report, Roethlisberger's deal for the upcoming campaign is for $19 million but carries a hefty $41 million salary cap hit.

Record numbers in wild-card loss
Roethlisberger completed 47 of 68 pass attempts for 501 passing yards, four touchdowns and four interceptions in Sunday's 48-37 loss to Cleveland in the wild-card round.
Analysis: Roethlisberger and the Steelers got off to an absolutely dreadful start, as the offense failed to score a point on the team's first six drives of the game, with four of those drives shortened by miscues involving the quarterback (three interceptions and a botched snap). Cleveland capitalized on seemingly every Pittsburgh mistake, going up 28-0 with plenty of time left in the first quarter.

With Roethlisberger off the report entirely to begin the current week, he's officially in the clear heading into Sunday's wild-card round rematch with Cleveland.

He threw second-half touchdown passes to Diontae Johnson, JuJu Smith-Schuster and Eric Ebron to help his team complete a come-from-behind victory against one of the best defensive units in the AFC.

Takes day off from practice
Roethlisberger (non-injury related) received a veteran's day off at Wednesday's practice, Ray Fittipaldo of the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette reports.
Analysis: Roethlisberger has regularly begun his practice weeks with rest days, so his availability for Sunday's game against the Colts doesn't appear to be in any question. That said, the poor form Roethlisberger has showed in recent weeks will make him difficult to trust in fantasy lineups, especially with a matchup on tap with a tough Colts pass defense. During Pittsburgh's three-game losing streak, Roethlisberger has completed only 57.8 percent of his throws for 5.2 yards per attempt and a 5:4 TD:INT.

While there doesn't seem to be an injury concern here, there's certainly reason to be worried about Roethlisberger and the entire Pittsburgh offense, which has failed to crack 20 points in any of its last four games.

Roethlisberger completed 20 of 38 passes for 170 yards, one touchdown and one interception in Monday's 27-17 loss to the Bengals. He also rushed twice for minus-1 yard and lost one of two fumbles.
Analysis: Roethlisberger got off to an excruciatingly slow start, completing six of 15 passes for seven yards with a fumble and an interception over Pittsburgh's first seven possessions. A meaningless 12-yard completion on 3rd-and-18 to cap the Steelers' eighth and final drive of the first half accounted for more than half of his yardage, but Big Ben still finished five yards short of his previous career low for a half (24).

Analysis: Roethlisberger and the Steelers took their second consecutive loss of the season, but unlike in last week's defeat to Washington, the gunslinger was unable to get any sort of offensive rhythm going against a Bills defense that was clicking on all cylinders.

Analysis: Roethlisberger connected with eight different pass catchers to top 300 yards for the fourth time this season. His biggest play came on a 50-yard touchdown to James Washington, but he also found favorite target Diontae Johnson for a three-yard score to open the game. Unfortunately, one of Roethlisberger's final passes was batted into the air before being intercepted, giving him a pick in three straight games. A tough matchup against the Bills awaits in Week 14.

Roethlisberger completed 36 of 51 pass attempts for 266 yards, one touchdown and one interception Wednesday in the Steelers' 19-14 win over the Ravens.
Analysis: Roethlisberger struggled to get in a rhythm and averaged only 5.2 yards per attempt. He managed only two completions of over 20 yards and also failed to throw a touchdown pass until 13 minutes remained in the fourth quarter. Consistently high volumes of pass attempts continue to mask Roethlisberger's inefficiency as a thrower, as he's failed to surpass six yards per attempt in four of his last six contexts.

However, he caught fire from there, connecting for touchdowns of 12, 8, 11 and five yards.

Analysis: On the Steelers' second-to-last possession of the first half, Roethlisberger was knocked to the ground and immediately grabbed at his right knee, per Michael Gehlken of The Dallas Morning News. Roethlisberger proceeded to complete the drive with a 17-yard scoring strike to James Washington, but he promptly left the field thereafter. Mason Rudolph took the field when the Steelers got the ball back quickly due to a CeeDee Lamb fumble, so it'll be interesting to see who among Roethlisberger or…read more

Tosses two TDs, reins in turnovers
Roethlisberger went 21-for-32 passing with 182 yards, two touchdowns and no interceptions during Sunday's 28-24 win against the Ravens.
Analysis: Roethlisberger endured a three-interception effort as the Steelers squeaked by the Titans 27-24 last Sunday, but his Week 8 outing was much cleaner in another very closely contested game. The two-time Super Bowl champion has thrown interceptions in just two of his seven appearances this season, leading Pittsburgh to its second 7-0 start in franchise history. A Week 9 matchup against the Cowboys is ultra enticing, as Dallas is tied for 28th in the NFL with 2.3 passing TDs surrendered per game.

Struggles with turnovers
Roethlisberger completed 32 of 49 pass attempts for 268 yards, two touchdowns and three interceptions in Week 7 against the Titans.
Analysis: Roethlisberger and the Steelers were blistering on offense to begin the game, scoring on their first four possessions. That included a pair of touchdown tosses by Roethlisberger, both of which went to Diontae Johnson (ankle). However, after that, Roethlisberger struggled to take care of the ball, throwing interceptions to end three of the team's final six drives. His inability to take care of the ball spoiled what looked to be the makings a of a strong performance, particularly given that…read more

Limited by game script
Roethlisberger completed 14 of 22 pass attempts for 162 yards and a touchdown in Week 6 against the Browns.
Analysis: Roethlisberger turned in an efficient performance but also attempter a season-low 22 pass attempts as the Steelers' cruised to victory. Even with the limited opportunity, Roethlisberger connected with James Washington for a long 28-yard touchdown. He also continued to develop rapport with Chase Claypool for big gains of 36 and 23 yards. With a Week 7 matchup against the Titans on tap, Roethlisberger will likely return to more volume in short order.

Throws for three scores
Roethlisberger completed 27 of 34 pass attempts for 239 yards and three touchdowns in Week 5 against the Eagles.
Analysis: Roethlisberger largely played game manager, as he averaged only seven yards per attempt but kept the Steelers' offense moving throughout the game. His longest completion of the day came on a 35-yard touchdown toss to Chase Claypool. Roethlisberger has topped 300 passing yards only once this season, but he boasts 10 passing scores and has thrown only one interception through four games. He'll look to add to that tally in Week 6 against the Browns.

Week 4 game called off
Roethlisberger and the Steelers will not take the field Week 4 against the Titans following additional positive COVID-19 tests within the Tennessee organization, Tom Pelissero of NFL Network reports.
Analysis: The initial plan was to move the game from Sunday to either Monday or Tuesday, but with reports of additional positive tests from another Titans player and personnel member surfacing, the league ultimately decided it would be best to postpone the contest. The Steelers were originally in line for a Week 8 bye, but it remains to be seen if that will stay intact with a new Week 4 bye now on the calendar.

Steelers-Titans to be rescheduled
Roethlisberger and the Steelers won't be in line to play Sunday against the Titans after the NFL announced the game would be rescheduled for Monday or Tuesday.
Analysis: The postponement of Sunday's scheduled game arrives after four Titans players and five team personnel members tested positive for COVID-19, according to ESPN.com. As a result of the outbreak, the Titans have closed their team facilities until Saturday.

Throws two TD passes
Roethlisberger completed 26 of 36 pass attempts for 237 yards and two touchdowns during Sunday's 28-21 win over the Texans.
Analysis: Roethlisberger completed 72 percent of his pass attempts while spreading the ball around to seven different receivers. He completed touchdown passes to Eric Ebron and JuJu Smith-Schuster in the second quarter but deferred to the running game a bit more in the second half. Although the yardage total was nothing to hang his hat on, it was a rather efficient performance from Roethlisberger against what has been a surprisingly adept Texans pass defense to this point.

Throws two TD passes
Roethlisberger completed 29 of 41 pass attempts for 311 yards, two touchdowns and one interception during Sunday's 26-21 win over the Broncos.
Analysis: Roethlisberger completed 70 percent of his throws and spread the ball around to nine different receivers. He made use of all his weapons as rookie Chase Claypool caught an 84-yard touchdown pass and second-year wideout Diontae Johnson added a 28-yard score of his own. The veteran took some time to get into the season opener against the Giants, but he's now posted a 5:1 TD:INT and has piled up 540 yassing yards on 73 attempts through two weeks.

Returns to practice
Roethlisberger was a full participant in Thursday's practice, Brooke Pryor of ESPN.com reports.
Analysis: Roethlisberger didn't take part in Wednesday's practice for maintenance purposes, which is expected to be the norm over the next 15 weeks of the regular season as the Steelers look to limit the strain on the veteran's surgically-repaired elbow. His ability to take every rep Thursday suggests that Roethlisberger came out of the Steelers' 26-16 win over the Giants on Monday feeling no worse for the wear. In his first competitive action in just under a year, Roethlisberger appeared to settle in…read more

Gets rest day
Roethlisberger (rest) did not practice Wednesday.
Analysis: Per Missi Matthews of the Steelers' official site, Roethlisberger's absence from practice to begin the week is due to the general soreness that comes packaged with suiting up for NFL action at age 38, rather than any specific injury. Using Wednesday as a rest day will be the norm for Roethlisberger this season, Matthews reports. The veteran signal-caller remains on track for Sunday's tilt against the Broncos, though it's notable that top offensive weapons JuJu Smith-Schuster (knee), Diontae…read more

Tosses three touchdowns in return
Roethlisberger completed 21 of 32 passes for 229 yards and three touchdowns in Monday night's 26-16 win over the Giants.
Analysis: Making his first appearance in a calendar year, the veteran QB understandably looked rusty to start, but he found his rhythm in the second quarter and rode that out for the remainder of the game. Roethlisberger's first touchdown came on a 10-yard pass on third down to top wideout JuJu Smith-Schuster, then shortly afterwards he found James Washington for a 13-yard score just before halftime. On the back of steady, turnover-free play and a healthy dose of the running game in the second half, Big…read more

Been playing in pain for years
Roethlisberger recently relayed that he's been playing with nagging pain in his throwing arm for over 13 years, Terez Paylor of Yahoo Sports reports.
Analysis: It is not a surprise that NFL quarterbacks endure a lot of pain, but it is a bit shocking to learn that Roethlisberger has suffered arm pain for almost his entire professional career. On the bright side, Big Ben says the pain has not returned since having elbow surgery during the offseason. Given the subpar performances of Mason Rudolph and Devlin Hodges in relief of Roethlisberger in 2019, the Steelers would likely settle for a fraction of the career-high 5,129 passing yards and 34 touchdowns…read more

Struggling with throwing motion?
Roethlisberger appeared to be short-arming some of his throws during Monday's practice, according to Mark Kaboly of The Athletic.
Analysis: Kaboly said the velocity looked fine, but he also mentioned that some of the deep throws reminded him of Philip Rivers' unconventional delivery. Roethlisberger is about 11 months removed from major elbow surgery, and coach Mike Tomlin mentioned a few weeks ago that the veteran quarterback's spirals weren't quite as tight as he'd like them to be. Roethlisberger remains on track for the Week 1 start, but there's no guarantee his arm strength and accuracy return to pre-injury form. Pittsburgh beat…read more

Feels good after throwing
Roethlisberger (elbow) did a lot of throwing Monday and said he felt great Tuesday morning, Ed Bouchette of The Athletic reports.
Analysis: Nearly 11 months removed from elbow surgery, Roethlisberger is on track for the Week 1 start. He's been throwing footballs in some capacity since February, with no report of any setbacks along the way. The 38-year-old quarterback provided some details on his surgery Tuesday morning, noting that he tore three of the five flexor tendons in his throwing elbow. It was a unique injury for an NFL quarterback, but Roethlisberger says his current physical condition is the best he's felt in 13 or 14…read more

Looking slim, healthy
Roethlisberger's (elbow) teammate, JuJu Smith-Schuster, said in Wednesday's episode of the "Pardon My Take" podcast that the quarterback is "pretty much back to 100 percent" and should benefit from losing some weight over the offseason, Brooke Pryor of ESPN.com reports.
Analysis: Coming back from major elbow surgery last September, the 38-year-old said in March that he was throwing without pain for the first time in years. The Steelers have given every indication Roethlisberger will be under center for Week 1, as he's recently been throwing passes to a group that includes Smith-Schuster, Diontae Johnson, James Washington, Eric Ebron and James Conner. The Pittsburgh offensive line isn't quite what it was a few years ago, but the overall setup remains solidly above…read more

Throwing with teammates
Roethlisberger (elbow) is shown throwing passes to teammates James Conner (quadriceps) and JuJu Smith-Schuster in a video released by the Steelers on Monday.
Analysis: Roethlisberger, who underwent right elbow surgery in September, opens the video stating that he won't cut his hair or shave until he's able to throw a "legit NFL pass" to his teammates. The clip ends with the veteran signal-caller receiving a cut and trim, indicating that his on-field work with Conner and Smith-Schuster represents being able to resume throwing without issues. The Steelers expect the 38-year-old to make a full recovery in time to kick off the 2020 campaign, and being able to…read more

Doing well in rehab
Roethlisberger (elbow) is expected to be ready when the season begins, Pittsburgh Tribune-Review writer Chris Adamski reports. "As we sit here today, we are extremely confident in his readiness," coach Mike Tomlin said.
Analysis: When asked about Roethlisberger's projected availability for the Steelers' season opener September 14 at the Giants, Tomlin added "He's throwing on a rehab schedule, and it's going well, and we fully anticipate him being ready to go for that opener." The Steelers will need Big Ben to stay healthy this season for the offense to improve after being one of the worst in the league last year.

To be ready for Week 1
Roethlisberger (elbow) expects to be healthy for Week 1 of the 2020 season, Ed Bouchette of The Athletic reports. "I was going to be ready to go for OTAs and the minicamps," Roethlisberger said Monday. "That was going to be the plan."
Analysis: Roethlisberger has displayed modest progress in his recovery from September surgery to reattach three ligaments in his throwing elbow, lofting passes in late February and throwing pain-free by the end of March. Along the way, there was an expectation he wouldn't do much during the offseason program and even be limited at the start of training camp. With the former happening virtually this year, Roethlisberger will turn his focus to being ready at the height of summer, though it remains to be…read more

Analysis: Per Kevin Patra of NFL.com, the QB also relayed that he's throwing about 40 passes per day from about 20 yards. With that in mind, Roethlisberger plans to gradually increase the volume and velocity of his throws, with an eye toward being ready for Week 1 on the 2020 NFL season.

Facing lengthy rehab
Roethlisberger (elbow) isn't expected to do much during the offseason program and likely will be limited early in training camp, Mark Kaboly of The Athletic reports.
Analysis: While he's said to be ahead of his initial rehab timeline, Roethlisberger only recently resumed throwing footballs, lofting some passes inside a gym in late February. The Steelers still haven't confirmed specifics of his injury, but this report suggests the Sept. 23 surgery reattached three ligaments in his throwing elbow. A previous report described the injury as a muscle tear, so there at least seems to be agreement that Roethlisberger didn't have Tommy John surgery. Steelers general manager…read more

Three months away from clearance
Roethlisberger (elbow) believes he's about two and a half or three months away from receiving full medical clearance, Ron Cook of The Pittsburgh Post-Gazette reports.
Analysis: The Steelers posted a short video Saturday of Roethlisberger lofting a pass inside a gym. The quarterback notes he was able to bypass tennis-ball throwing and instead moved right to footballs, but his timeline estimate suggests he won't be ready for strenuous activity any sooner than the end of the offseason program or the beginning of training camp. Roethlisberger will turn 38 in May, looking to rebound from Sept. 23 surgery to repair a torn muscle in his throwing elbow. Steelers coach Mike…read more

Spotted throwing
Roethlisberger (elbow) was shown lofting passes in a performance center Saturday.
Analysis: The Roethlisberger recovery tour continued Saturday, with the Steelers teasing a five-second video showcasing the veteran quarterback attempting passes in the performance center. Both head coach Mike Tomlin and general manager Kevin Colbert have expressed certainty in Roethlisberger's status for the 2020 season in recent days, although the exact rehab timeline remains unknown. The 37-year-old underwent surgery on his throwing elbow Sept. 23.

Expected back for Week 1
Head coach Mike Tomlin said Monday that he has "no hesitation" that Roethlisberger (elbow) will be ready for the 2020 regular-season opener, Brooke Pryor of ESPN.com reports.
Analysis: Tomlin echoed the sentiment shared by GM Kevin Colbert last Thursday, despite the long recovery underway by Roethlisberger following season-ending elbow surgery. Roethlisberger played just six quarters in 2019, and with Mason Rudolph, Devlin Hodges and Paxton Lynch the only current options besides Roethlisberger, the Steelers need Tomlin and Colbert to be right if they are to reach the playoffs for the first time in three seasons.

Analysis: Roethlisberger continues to recover from elbow surgery undergone on his throwing arm Sept. 23, and all reports regarding his progress have been optimistic thus far. The 37-year-old signal-caller will need to clear stages in his rehab process before receiving full medical clearance, and it remains to be seen whether he'll manage to attain a clean bill of health in time to kick off training camp, but it currently looks as though Roethlisberger is trending in the right direction for the start of…read more

Coach Mike Tomlin said Tuesday that Roethlisberger (elbow) will meet with doctors in early February for what amounts to a "significant" checkup, Brooke Pryor of ESPN.com reports.
Analysis: Roethlisberger hasn't hit any reported snags in his recovery since undergoing surgery on his throwing elbow Sept. 23, but the Steelers won't be able to map out the final stages of his rehab process until he's re-evaluated. The 37-year-old indicated last week that he intends to continue his career in 2020, so if he gets a clean bill of health from doctors heading into training camp, Roethlisberger should reclaim his familiar perch atop the Steelers' depth chart.

Affirms commitment to play in 2020
Roethlisberger (elbow) announced Wednesday via his personal Twitter account that he's rehabbing his injury with the intention of continuing his career in 2020.
Analysis: Roethlisberger's 16th NFL season came to an end in Week 2, when he required surgery to reattach three tendons in the elbow on his (right) throwing arm. The veteran will turn 38 in March and carries a hefty $33.5 million cap figure for 2020, but assuming his recovery continues as anticipated, the Steelers will probably be willing to keep him in the fold.

Roethlisberger is expected to be fully recovered from September elbow surgery and play during the 2020 season, Chris Mortensen of ESPN reports.
Analysis: Roethlisberger was shut down after the first two games of the current campaign and underwent a procedure Sept. 23 to reattach three tendons in his right elbow. The 16-year pro hasn't been cleared to throw but has made enough progress to date to raise hopes that he'll suit up next fall and potentially beyond that point.
