Steelers QB Ben Roethlisberger (knee) officially out for Week 7

Oct 18, 2016

Pittsburgh Steelers quarterback Ben Roethlisberger has been officially ruled out of Sunday's game against the New England Patriots, coach Mike Tomlin announced Tuesday.

Tomlin won't speculate when Roethlisberger will return. Backup Landry Jones will get all the practice reps this week.

Fantasy Impact:

A source told ESPN that the Steelers are cautiously optimistic that Roethlisberger -- who had surgery for a torn meniscus in his left knee Monday -- can play Week 9 against the Baltimore Ravens. Pittsburgh is scheduled for a Week 8 bye.

It's not clear if Ronald Jones was limited or full in practice, but we'll know more from the Bucs injury report this afternoon. If he's good to go this week against New Orleans, Rojo will assume the lead-back role, otherwise, it's Leonard Fournette who will get the nod.
