Dome Posted August 14, 2018 Share Posted August 14, 2018 "Ben Roethlisberger sustained a hit today in practice," Tomlin said. "He is being evaluated by team doctors as part of the concussion protocol." Roethlisberger went down during a 7 shots segment of practice, according to multiple reporters on the scene. Offensive tackle Marcus Gilbert told reporters after practice that Roethlisberger went down after he rolled out and ran into him as Gilbert was blocking linebacker Keion Adams. http://www.nfl.com/news/story/0ap3000000947827/article/ben-roethlisberger-in-concussion-protocol-after-hit Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I can assure that writer with 100% accuracy, this went on long before the internet arrived. And accidents are also a 100% likelihood, regardless of position. My dog understands these events have to be reported, but bringing CTE up when we have no idea about the severity is a bit much. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
