Pittsburgh Steelers quarterback Ben Roethlisberger is in the concussion protocol after taking a hit to the head in practice on Tuesday. There aren’t really any clear reports as to what happened other than he took a hit to the head.
Via WPXI:
Roethlisberger clearly was in some discomfort. While it’s unclear whether or not Big Ben was hit or fell and hit his head, it appears as if he didn’t have a red QB practice jersey on at the time of the injury.
Just a suggestion, but maybe you want your starting quarterback to wear one of those in practice. It is possible Ben missed the feeling of a concussion and did it to himself. He does love contact.
