Ben Roethlisberger Will Play Monday
3 years agoPittsburgh Steelers head coach Mike Tomlin said that quarterback Ben Roethlisberger (shoulder), who popped up on the team's injury report on Friday with a shoulder injury, will play on Monday night against the Chicago Bears in Week 9. Big Ben was taken off the final injury report on Saturday after getting in a full practice, so he's good to go against a Bears defense that has surrendered 27.2 fantasy points per game to the position in the last three weeks -- second-most in the league. Can Roethlisberger take advantage of a Bears defense that will be without star pass-rusher Khalil Mack (foot) again? The 39-year-old has certainly looked his age in what might be his final season. There's some upside this week, but he remains firmly in QB2 territory.
