Steelers' Ben Roethlisberger: Puts in full practice

Roethlisberger (shoulder/pectoral) was a full participant in Thursday's practice, Teresa Varley of the Steelers' official site reports.

As anticipated, neither of the two injuries that Roethlisberger has been managing for most of the season will prevent him from suiting up for Pittsburgh's wild-card matchup with the Chiefs this weekend. In what could be the final start of his career, Roethlisberger may get a boost in his pass-catching weapons. The Steelers welcomed James Washington (illness) back from the reserve/COVID-19 list Thursday, while JuJu Smith-Schuster (shoulder) was designated to return from injured reserve and could have a shot at being available to play for the first time since Week 5.
