Ben Roethlisberger suffered an elbow injury in the first half of the Pittsburgh Steelers’ game against the Seattle Seahawks on Sunday.
Roethlisberger was seen flexing his right arm and wincing while grabbing his elbow/forearm area on more than one occasion. He remained in the game at the time, but he was clearly experiencing some sort of discomfort and headed to the locker room before halftime.

The Steelers later announced that Roethlisberger suffered an elbow injury, and he was replaced by Mason Rudolph in the second half.
The Steelers were looking to bounce back after their 33-3 blowout loss to the New England Patriots in Week 1. Roethlisberger completed 8-of-15 passes for 75 yards on Sunday prior to heading to the locker room to be examined.
