The Facts:

Fantasy Football Diehards Line:
Roethlisberger's jaw was broken in four places, so he couldn't eat all types of solid food and has lost weight -- he's at 236 pounds, lower than he was at the end of last season. What's uncertain now is if there will be any problems related to his head injuries that might develop once he starts getting hit in real games. ... But Bill Cowher also said it will be a normal camp for Roethlisberger, as long as nothing unexpected occurs. It hasn't been decided yet if he will play in the first pre-season game Aug. 12 against Arizona.
