Big Ben Limited Friday

Found December 16, 2011 on Fantasy Football Champs: Yardbarker Blogger Network
PLAYERS: Ben Roethlisberger
TEAMS: Pittsburgh Steelers

Quarterback Ben Roethlisberger was a limited participant in Friday's practice, according to Scott Brown of the Pittsburgh Tribune-Review.

Mike Wallace and Antonio Brown would be more stable plays among fantasy receivers if Big Ben is ultimately able to lead Pittsburgh into battle.
