Fox Sports is reporting that Ben Roethlisberger won’t play on Sunday night due to the concussion he received last Sunday against the Chiefs.
Ben Roethlisberger Out For Sunday Night
Big Ben was suffering from exercise-induced headaches as the week progressed and the team’s medical staff deemed him unfit for the contest.
The NFL this week launched a new initiative on concussions and is clearly trying to take a more conservative approach when it comes to head trauma.
This news is of course bad for owners of Ben Roethlisberger, but he was playing a tough defense anyway and if you own him you should feel good that they are resting him. But you should downgrade all your Steeler players. It will be difficult for Dennis Dixon to move the ball and Rashard Mendenhall won’t have many goal line opportunities.
