LANDOVER, Md. (AP) -Pittsburgh Steelers quarterback Ben Roethlisberger got the night off after injuring his Achilles’ tendon in practice this week.
The Steelers said Roethlisberger would not play in Saturday night’s exhibition game against the Washington Redskins.
Roethlisberger was hurt Thursday when left tackle Max Starks stepped on the quarterback’s foot. The injury isn’t thought to be serious, and Roethlisberger traveled with the team to Washington.
Charlie Batch was slated to start in Roethlisberger’s place. Left guard Chris Kemoeatu also missed the game with a rib injury.
