Ben Roethlisberger dealing with minor elbow injury
Ben Roethlisberger has played through countless injuries during his NFL career, and he is already dealing with another one just one game into the 2018 season.
On Tuesday, Pittsburgh Steelers head coach Mike Tomlin told reporters that Roethlisberger could be limited in practice this week with an elbow injury.
Head coach Mike Tomlin says Ben Roethlisberger has a minor elbow issue that may limit him in the early part of the week. But he seems unconcerned, saying #Steelers "oftentimes limit him in the beginning of the week anyway" to give younger guys reps.

Roethlisberger struggled in a tie against the Cleveland Browns on Sunday, completing 23-of-41 passes for 335 yards, one touchdown and three interceptions. It’s unclear if the elbow issue had anything to do with some of his inaccurate throws, but he isn’t in danger of sitting out in Week 2.
