Steelers QB Ben Roethlisberger dealing with hip injury

Oct 05, 2021

Mike Tomlin says Ben Roethlisberger has some kind of hip issue from the game.

Related players: Mason Rudolph, Dwayne Haskins

Fantasy Impact:

Practice will be the guide for his participation, the tweet went on to say. There's been talk the Steelers should make a change at QB following the team's loss in Week 4 where Big Ben missed several passes, including two to JuJu Smith-Schuster that potentially could have been touchdowns. Many feel Rudolph would be next up in the pecking order, but it's no secret the team really does like Haskins, so he certainly could get a chance if the team moves away from Ben or he's just not able to start in Week 5.

Kittle returns to a great matchup against a Packers defense that ranks 26th in TE aFPA. He should be fired up as a high-end TE1 once again.

Per Bears head coach Matt Eberflus: Ryan Bates remains in the concussion protocol. Elijah Hicks (ankle) and D'Andre Swift (groin) won't practice.

Teven Jenkins will be limited.

Related Players: Roschon Johnson, Travis Homer

Fantasy Impact:

This is definitely a situation to keep an eye on, as Johnson would have a huge workload if Swift were to miss Week 12. Homer has three rush attempts and zero targets on the year.
