He began training at the Steelers facility last week, days after he returned from an extended Pro Bowl stay in Hawaii. He talked to HC Mike Tomlin about where he is in his career and about the future. "When I talked to Mike, I said I don't know how much longer I have to play, no one does; it could be two years, three years, it could be eight years. Who knows?" Roethlisberger said during an extensive interview Thursday. The QB added his goal is to report for training camp lighter and in better shape than ever. Roethlisberger sustained a number of injuries in 2011, including those to his foot and right shoulder as well as a broken right thumb and high left ankle sprain. He said his ankle feels fine, but he is working on healing his right shoulder, which needs to be strengthened because of the injury. "I'm just waiting on my shoulder, it's the only thing left to get healed up," Roethlisbeger said. "That's the last thing." Despite his various injuries along with those of many teammates, Roethlisberger threw for 4,077 yards, second most in his career. His 90.1 passer rating marked the sixth time in his eight seasons he has been in the 90s or higher.
