Steelers QB Ben Roethlisberger was activated from the reserve/COVID list and is on track to play Sunday against the Bengals.

Roethlisberger was a high-risk, close-contact addition to the list due to his interaction with TE Vance McDonald. But there have obviously been no other issues with Roethlisberger and there was always the chance he would be activated today and play Sunday. Roethlisberger is currently our No. 13 QB for the week.

While talking to reporters Friday, Steelers head coach Mike Tomlin said that he expected Ben Roethlisberger to come off the reserve/COVID-19 list Saturday. The team is also expected to do a walk-through so he can have a little more time with his teammates.

Big Ben appears set to play Sunday and without limitations.

Pittsburgh Steelers head coach Mike Tomlin indicated during his Tuesday press conference that he won't have any reservations about starting quarterback Ben Roethlisberger against the Cincinnati Bengals on Sunday if the former Miami University standout misses the entire week of practice.

"I'm not overly concerned about it," Tomlin told reporters. "This guy has been doing his job for 17 years."

The story added Tomlin also said players on the list as contacts - including Roethlisberger - will play the Week 10 game AFC North battle in Pittsburgh as long as they test negative throughout the week.

Roethlisberger was deemed a high-risk, close contact, per source. This comes after TE Vance McDonald tested positive. Provided Big Ben passes COVID tests this week, he would be eligible to come off the list Saturday and play Sunday against the Bengals, according to Schefter. If Roethlisberger can't play, Rudolph would be expected to get the start with Dobbs the backup.

Ben Roethlisberger hurt both knees against the Cowboys but neither injury was serious and he’s expected to play this week, Ian Rapoport of NFL Network reports.

Although Roethlisberger briefly left the game and was replaced by Mason Rudolph, he returned, played well and helped the Steelers to a comeback win. The Steeles play the Bengals in Week 10.

Less than 24 hours after the Steelers defeated the Dallas Cowboys by a score of 24-19, ESPN's Field Yates reported that the Steelers had placed tight end Vance McDonald on the reserve/COVID-19 list after he tested positive.

The story said while this usually wouldn't be too worrisome, McDonald was showing symptoms of an illness days before the Steelers and Cowboys kicked off. He was a full participant in practice on Wednesday and Thursday of last week, but missed Friday with an "illness." He was listed as questionable to suit up for Pittsburgh in Week 9, but he did end up playing and caught his only target for a total of two yards. The story also said just because McDonald tested positive on Monday does not necessarily mean he had the coronavirus when he was feeling ill last week. Contract tracing could give us more information in the coming days.

Steelers QB Ben Roethlisberger limped off the field with an apparent knee injury with about a minute left before halftime.

Hopefully this is nothing major and hopefully we get word during halftime if Roethlisberger is able to come back in, but for the moment, Mason Rudolph is in the game for Pittsburgh, who had a quiet first half against the Cowboys.
