Steelers' Ben Roethlisberger to undergo season-ending elbow surgery
Pittsburgh Steelers quarterback Ben Roethlisberger will undergo season-ending elbow surgery later this week, head coach Mike Tomlin announced.
What It Means:
The decision was made by the Steelers' medical staff after Roethlisberger underwent an MRI Sunday evening. He will be placed on injured reserve. 2018 third-round pick Mason Rudolph is in line to make his first NFL start in Week 3 versus the San Francisco 49ers.
Big Ben completed 56.5 percent of his passes for 351 yards (5.7 yards per attempt) with 0 touchdowns and 1 interception this season.
