Steelers Losing Ben Roethlisberger A Few Weeks With Foot Sprain [VIDEO]

The Pittsburgh Steelers just can't catch a break this season. First, there was the loss of Le'Veon Bell for a couple game due to a suspension. Then there was the first injury to Ben Roethlsiberger that brought on the mercifully short-lived Michael Vick tenure. Last week they finally got him back, but he was a bit rusty.

They had hoped that vintage Big Ben would reemerge against the Raiders. While Big Ben did have a solid statistical game he ended up getting knocked out of it in the fourth quarter.

There was fear of a broken bone, but it ended up being a foot sprain:

Ben Roethlisberger has a mid-foot sprain and is expected to be sidelined "a few weeks", per source.

Hopefully Landry Jones can prove he is an NFL-caliber player with a few wins so that the Steelers can be in playoff contention when Big Ben gets back.
