Expects to be healthy for 2020
Though the exact nature of the right elbow procedure Roethlisberger will undergo later this week isn't known, he won't be in line for Tommy John surgery, Ian Rapoport of NFL Network reports.
Analysis: Tommy John surgery is a rather common procedure for baseball pitchers and often carries a recovery timeline of more than 12 months, but Roethlisberger's surgery isn't expected to keep him sidelined nearly that long. In fact, the quarterback has said that he anticipates being back to full strength in advance of the 2020 season, with a more specific timeline likely to come once the surgery is completed. Roethlisberger has already dismissed any notion that he'll retire and plans to play out the…read more

Plans to play next year
Roethlisberger, who will require season-ending elbow surgery, has no plans to retire. "I am completely determined to battle through this challenge and come back stronger than ever next season," Roethlisberger noted in a statement posted by the team Monday. "The Steelers committed three years to me this offseason and I fully intend to honor my contract and reward them with championship level play."
Analysis: In Roethlisberger's absence, Mason Rudolph will start at QB for the Steelers, with Devlin Hodges currently the team's top backup. It's way too early to get a handle on a timetable for Roethlisberger's recovery, but the 37-year-old now will set his sights on being available for the start of the 2020 NFL season.

Officially placed on IR
The Steelers placed Roethlisberger (elbow) on injured reserve Monday.
Analysis: It was already announced Monday that Roethlisberger will require season-ending elbow surgery, so his placement on injured reserve is simply a formality. In a corresponding move, Pittsburgh promoted fellow passer Devlin Hodges to the 53-man roster to back up Mason Rudolph, who will start under center in Roethlisberger's absence.

Done for season
Coach Mike Tomlin relayed Monday that Roethlisberger will require season-ending elbow surgery.
Analysis: An MRI on Roethlisberger's right (throwing) elbow revealed that the QB will need surgery and is now in line to be placed on IR. With Roethlisberger ruled out for the remainder of the 2019 campaign, the Steelers will proceed with Mason Rudolph as their starting signal-caller. It's unclear who will back up Rudolph with Joshua Dobbs having been traded to the Jaguars last week.

May need surgery
Roethlisberger (elbow) may need surgery, Adam Schefter of ESPN reports.
Analysis: Roethlisberger wants to avoid surgery at all costs, but it isn't clear that will even be an option, with a decision expected at some point Monday. Dianna Russini of ESPN reports Roethlisberger dealt with inflammation in his throwing elbow at practice last week, though he wasn't listed on the injury report. He grabbed for his arm after a completion late in the second quarter of Sunday's loss to the Seahawks, then stayed in the game for a few more plays before bowing out at halftime. The…read more

Throwing elbow being evaluated
Dianna Russini of ESPN relays that Roethlisberger dealt with some elbow inflammation at practice this past week.
Analysis: Roethlisberger was forced out of Sunday's 28-26 loss to the Seahawks due to an issue affecting his right throwing elbow, with Mason Rudolph replacing him to start the second half of the contest. Per coach Mike Tomlin, the QB is still being evaluated at this stage, which also is the case for starting running back James Conner, who exited the game with a knee injury.

Exits game with right elbow injury
Roethlisberger was forced out of Sunday's game against the Seahawks with a right elbow injury, Brooke Pryor of ESPN.com reports.
Analysis: As a result, Mason Rudolph will start the second half of the contest at QB for the Steelers. Prior to his exit, Roethlisberger had completed 8 of 15 pass attempts for 75 yards.

Shaky in 2019 debut
Roethlisberger completed just 57 percent of his pass attempts (27 of 47) for 276 yards, no touchdowns and an interception in Sunday's 33-3 loss to the Patriots.
Analysis: Roethlisberger and the rest of his teammates simply did not show up for this primetime matchup, getting outclassed in nearly every facet of the game. The 37-year-old was uncharacteristically inaccurate, missing several open targets we are used to seeing him nail without fail in the past. Chemistry aside, the loss of talents like Antonio Brown and Le'Veon Bell this past offseason may affect Big Ben more than initially expected. That said, the All-Pro signal caller has developed enough goodwill…read more

Scores in preseason debut
Roethlisberger completed eight of 13 pass attempts for 63 yards and a touchdown in Sunday's preseason win over Tennessee.
Analysis: Roethlisberger made his preseason debut and was limited to just one quarter (three drives) of action. The 37-year-old connected with JuJu Smith-Schuster for a 17-yard touchdown on his final drive of the game. The Roethlisberger to Smith-Schuster connection figures to be the most efficient source of offense in Pittsburgh this season with Antonio Brown and Le'Veon Bell long gone. The All-Pro quarterback is not expected to play in the team's preseason finale Thursday.

Will see action Sunday
Coach Mike Tomlin confirmed that Roethlisberger will play in Sunday's preseason game against the Titans, Missi Matthews of the Steelers' official site reports.
Analysis: It's unclear how long Roethlisberger will be out there in what will be his only exhibition action this summer, but we suspect that it won't be long enough for him to merit DFS consideration in the most random of preseason weeks to project.

Not in line to play Saturday
Roethlisberger is expected to see his only preseason action in the Steelers' third exhibition tilt, Aug. 25 versus the Titans, Chris Adamski of the Pittsburgh Tribune-Review reports.
Analysis: With Roethlisberger sitting out last week's preseason opener, Josh Dobbs got the start. This Saturday against the Chiefs, Mason Rudolph will get the nod, followed by Dobbs, with Devlin Hodges also also expected to see some action.

Won't play Friday
Roethlisberger won't play in Friday's preseason opener against the Bucs, Missi Matthews of the Steelers' official site reports.
Analysis: As a result, Josh Dobbs will get the starting nod and will be followed in the contest by Mason Rudolph. The Steelers' decision to sit Roethlisberger in their first preseason contest isn't a surprising one, given the downside of exposing the veteran quarterback to unnecessary contact. His next chance to suit up in an exhibition game will arrive Aug. 17, when the team faces the Chiefs.

Gets $67.5M guaranteed in new deal
Roethlisberger will be guaranteed $67.5 million through the 2021 season after agreeing Wednesday with the Steelers on a two-year, $68 million contract extension, Adam Schefter of ESPN reports.
Analysis: Roethlisberger will earn $12 million in salary in 2019 before the extension goes into effect next March at the start of the new league year. Upon putting pen to paper on the deal, Roethlisberger will receive $37.5 million as part of a signing bonus, with another $30 million guaranteed in the event of an injury. The extension essentially ensures that Roethlisberger, who turned 37 in March, will finish his career with the only franchise he's ever known.

Reaches two-year extension
The Steelers and Roethlisberger came to terms Wednesday on a two-year contract extension, Ian Rapoport of NFL Network reports.
Analysis: The value of the deal isn't yet known, but it's expected that the extension will make Roethlisberger one of the NFL's highest-paid players on an annual basis while he's on the Steelers' books through 2021. Though the veteran signal-caller had hinted at retirement in previous offseasons, Roethlisberger confirmed shortly after the Steelers' 2018 campaign wrapped up that he would be back for 2019. Roethlisberger is coming off a productive season in which he established new career highs in passing…read more

Could get extension soon
The Steelers hope to sign Roethlisberger to a contract extension before the beginning of the 2019 NFL Draft, ESPN.com's Adam Schefter reports.
Analysis: There doesn't seem to be any real concern about the two sides failing to reach an agreement, though it won't necessarily happen by Thursday. The 37-year-old quarterback is entering the final season of a four-year, $87.6 million extension and faces the issue of leading an offense without Antonio Brown (Raiders) or Le'Veon Bell (Jets). The Steelers still have an above-average collection of talent on offense, led by an excellent O-line and wide receiver JuJu Smith-Schuster.

Still in contract talk
Roethlisberger is still in the process of working out a contract extension with the Steelers, Aditi Kinkhabwala of NFL Network reports.
Analysis: A January report suggested the matter would be finalized before the start of the new league year, but it apparently went on the back burner while the Steelers focused on securing a pair of mid-round draft picks in exchange for a 30-year-old wideout with 11,207 career receiving yards. Roethlisberger will need to adjust to life without Antonio Brown, though it at least should be a positive in terms of team chemistry, and the remaining talent on offense is still above league average thanks to JuJu…read more

Likely to have contract restructured
The Steelers and Roethlisberger are expected to restructure his contract before the new league year starts March 13, Adam Schefter of ESPN reports.
Analysis: In the past, the Steelers have come to an agreement on extensions for Roethlisberger with two years and one year remaining on existing deals, so the veteran signal-caller is on pace for another with one year left on his current contract. This time around, the Antonio Brown (knee) saga is precipitating the potential need for cap space. With the Steelers perhaps contemplating moving on from Brown, a trade would include a dead-cap hit of $21.25 million, and a high-priced player like…read more

Says he'll be back for 2019
Roethlisberger said he will return for the 2019 season, Chris Adamski of TribLive.com reports. "I have another year on my contract," Roethlisberger said Sunday. "And if No. 53 (Maurkice Pouncey) is coming back, I'm coming back."
Analysis: While the comment probably shouldn't be taken literally, the 29-year-old Pouncey does have one season remaining on a long-term contract -- same as his close friend Roethlisberger. The 36-year-old quarterback has openly pondered retirement in past seasons, drawing unnecessary attention from the media when there was little chance he would actually hang up his cleats. He's taking a different approach this time around, putting an end to the discussion before anyone can start it. Roethlisberger set…read more

Win keeps slim playoff hopes alive
Roethlisberger completed 31 of 45 passes for 287 yards with one touchdown and one interception during Sunday's 16-13 win over Cincinnati. He also had three carries for three yards.
Analysis: Pittsburgh struggled on offense the first half -- managing just three points -- but the defense kept the game close enough to pull out a victory in the final two minutes. This was a must-win game for Pittsburgh, which needs the game between Indianapolis and Tennessee to end in a tie in order to make the playoffs. Roethlisberger finishes the 2018 season completing 452 of 675 passes for 5,128 yards with a 34:16 TD:INT ratio. He also ran for 98 yards on 31 carries and caught one pass -- from…read more

Puts up 50 pass attempts in loss
Roethlisberger completed 33 of 50 passes for 380 yards and three touchdowns during Sunday's 31-28 loss to New Orleans.
Analysis: The Steelers have thrown 35 more passes than any other team this year -- the Colts are second with 609 -- as Roethlisberger has chucked up 45-plus attempts in four of his past six games. The issue is, the veteran quarterback has been characteristically vulnerable to turnovers down the stretch, throwing five interceptions over the past five games as Pittsburgh has gone 1-4 to fall out of playoff positioning headed into Week 17.

Does enough for critical victory
Roethlisberger completed 22 of 34 passes for 235 yards with two touchdowns and two interceptions in the Steelers' 17-10 win over the Patriots on Sunday. He also lost three yards on two rushes.
Analysis: While the two interceptions were certainly a blemish, Roethlisberger made enough key plays to help the Steelers to the critical victory over a conference rival that had often bedeviled them in the past. Big Ben notably spread the ball around, connecting with eight different receivers. He found Vance McDonald and Antonio Brown for touchdowns of five and 17 yards in the first and second quarter, respectively, and just missed two others to McDonald and JuJu Smith-Schuster.

Playing through rib issue
Roethlisberger, who does not carry an official injury designation heading into Sunday's game against the Patriots, reportedly suffered cracked ribs in Week 14's loss to the Raiders, Ian Rapoport of NFL Network reports.
Analysis: In the wake of his rib issue, which the Steelers ' official site referred to as contusions, Roethlisberger did not practice Wednesday, but was able to work fully both Thursday and Friday. As a result, his Week 15 status isn't in doubt, but the QB figures to contend with and play through a degree of discomfort until his ribs are completely healed.

Analysis: Roethlisberger understandably dealt with some soreness after sustaining rib contusions in Week 14, but his status for Sunday's game against the Patriots is not in doubt. On the heels of three straight losses, the Steelers head into the weekend at 7-5-1, a context that makes Sunday's contest critical with regard to the team's playoff hopes.

Gets precautionary MRI
Roethlisberger said Tuesday on his weekly radio show that he required an MRI for the rib injury he picked up in Sunday's 24-21 loss to the Raiders but reiterated he doesn't expect to miss time, Jeremy Fowler of ESPN.com. "I'll be on the field [Week 15 against the Patriots], that's all that matters."
Analysis: Roethlisberger missed 19 of the Steelers' 60 offensive plays in the Week 14 loss after team trainers decided to hold him out for a spell when initial X-rays on the rib injury he sustained were inconclusive, per Fowler. The Steelers ultimately signed off on Roethlisberger's return to action, with the signal-caller giving the team a four-point lead on a touchdown pass to JuJu Smith-Schuster with 2:55 remaining in the contest before Oakland answered for the game-winning score with 21 seconds left.…read more

Drops second straight game
Roethlisberger completed 29 of 45 passes for 281 yards with two touchdowns and an interception during Sunday's 33-30 loss to the Chargers.
Analysis: The Steelers jumped out to a 23-7 lead before the half but could have gone in to the locker room leading by more had Roethlisberger not been intercepted by safety Derwin James on a pass intended for Vance McDonald deep in Chargers territory. Big Ben has now thrown six interceptions in his last three games, losing the last two.

Massive output in losing effort
Roethlisberger completed 41 of 56 attempts, accounting for 462 passing yards, one touchdown and two interceptions during Sunday's 24-17 loss to the Broncos. He added two rushes for 18 yards on the ground as well.
Analysis: The veteran quarterback had a solid fantasy outing despite loose care for the football, exceeding 20 points (standard scoring) for the sixth time over his past seven games but committing a fate-clinching interception in the end zone when down a touchdown with under 1:30 to go in regulation.

Roethlisberger was able to uncork a nice deep ball late in the third quarter, resulting in a 78-yard Antonio Brown touchdown.

Roethlisberger completed 22 of 25 passes for 328 yards with five touchdowns and no interceptions in the Steelers' 52-21 win over the Panthers on Thursday. He also rushed three times for 27 yards and fumbled once but recovered.
Analysis: Roethlisberger shook off a minor finger injury to post his fifth 300-yard game of the season and complete a season-best 88.0 percent of his throws. Big Ben finished with a perfect 158.3 rating for the contest as well, and he spread the wealth by connecting with JuJu Smith-Schuster, Antonio Brown, Vance McDonald, Jesse James and Jaylen Samuels for his scores.

Roethlisberger (finger) doesn't carry an injury designation into Thursday's game against the Panthers.
Analysis: Roethlisberger will thus continue to manage and work through a fractured finger on his left (non-throwing) hand when the Steelers -- winners of four straight -- take on the 6-2 Panthers. Meanwhile, Roethlisberger is coming off a Week 9 effort in which he shrugged off his aches and pains to complete 28 of 47 passes for 270 yards and two scores while adding another touchdown on the ground in a 23-16 win in Baltimore.

Analysis: The quarterback's availability for the weekend isn't a concern after he practiced Thursday and Friday while sporting a glove on the injured hand, but Roethlisberger could opt for a splint if he thinks the finger requires extra protection.
