Ben Roethlisberger leaves practice with ankle injury Thursday: Fantasy implications
Ben Roethlisberger left practice with an ankle injury Thursday, but he appears to be fine. We break down the fantasy implications.
Don McPeak-US PRESSWIRE
Roethlisberger has completed 64.6% of his passes this season, for 1,487 yards and 10 TDs to just two INTs.
Fantasy Impact: Big Ben is possibly one of the most banged-up QBs in the league, but he almost never misses time despite all the bumps and bruises. Expect him to be listed on the injury reports Friday, but there shouldn’t be any danger of him missing Sunday’s game.
The Steelers take on the Cincinnati Bengals in Week 7, and Big Ben is a fine QB1 play against Cincy's porous pass defense.
