Ben Roethlisberger's Knee Improving
4 years agoPittsburgh Steelers quarterback Ben Roethlisberger (knee) was listed as not practicing on Wednesday for non-injury reasons, which is an indication that his ailing knee has improved. Leading up to Week 13, Roethlisberger didn't practice at all because of his knee, but it looks like his knee has improved ahead of a Week 14 date with the Bills on Sunday night. Big Ben threw for 305 yards, two touchdowns and an interception in the loss on Monday to the Washington Football Team, which was an improvement over a poor performance the following Wednesday in a win over the Ravens. Getting running back James Conner back this weekend should allow Pittsburgh's offense to be much more balanced and effective, making Roethlisberger a low-end QB1 against Buffalo. The Bills Defense has allowed the sixth-most fantasy points per game to signal-callers this season.
