BEN ROETHLISBERGER
Ben Roethlisberger's willingness to do whatever it takes to win made him the ultimate Steelers QB Big Ben's defining moment as a Steeler came on defense, which might seem odd given all of the quarterback's accomplishments as a passer but...
Ben Roethlisberger's curtain call wasn't pretty. Then again, it rarely is for great quarterbacks: Bouchette "It's just truly been a blessing," Ben Roethlisberger said. "... Didn’t end the way we wanted it to, but it’s a blessing to play this game."

Two TDs in potential final game Roethlisberger completed 29 of 44 pass attempts for 215 yards and two touchdowns in Sunday's 42-21 loss to Kansas City.
Impact Roethlisberger was unable to extend his late-season win streak to three games, bowing out to a superior Chiefs squad that may have given the veteran quarterback the last two losses of his career. The future Hall of Famer hinted heavily towards this being the last game of his storied career, something his depleted arm strength had already naturally revealed over the last couple of seasons. Barring a major mindset shift or an offer to return that he can't refuse, Big Ben will end his career with 64,088 career passing yards, 418 touchdown passes and two Super Bowl rings.

Puts in full practice Roethlisberger (shoulder/pectoral) was a full participant in Thursday's practice, Teresa Varley of the Steelers' official site reports.
Impact As anticipated, neither of the two injuries that Roethlisberger has been managing for most of the season will prevent him from suiting up for Pittsburgh's wild-card matchup with the Chiefs this weekend. In what could be the final start of his career, Roethlisberger may get a boost in his pass-catching weapons. The Steelers welcomed James Washington (illness) back from the reserve/COVID-19 list Thursday, while JuJu Smith-Schuster (shoulder) was designated to return from injured reserve and could have a shot at being available to play for the first time since Week 5.

Logs limited practice Roethlisberger (pectoral/right shoulder) was a limited participant in Wednesday's practice, Teresa Varley of the Steelers' official site reports.
Impact Roethlisberger continues to manage the pair of injuries, but there's little doubt regarding his status for Sunday's wild-card game against Kansas City. With that in mind, the veteran quarterback will likely return to a full practice participation Thursday and avoid taking an injury designation into the weekend.
