The Facts:
NBC-TV reported Sunday night that Roethlisberger has a separated shoulder, described merely as "sore" by HC Mike Tomlin last Tuesday. Indeed, the quarterback has a low-grade separation. Roethlisberger's shoulder injury likely will cause him some discomfort for several weeks.

Fantasy Football Diehards Line:
The injury did not prevent him from throwing 19 times, including one pass of at least 60 yards and another of 50 in a swirling wind in Cleveland. Roethlisberger completed 14 of his tosses, one for an 11-yard touchdown to Hines Ward, and finished with a 113.0 passer rating. Look for similar (or better) efforts going forward.
