The Facts:
Roethlisberger left practice early Wednesday with an injury to the thumb on his throwing hand. "I think he hit his thumb, on the next-to-last play he was in there, on a shoulder pad," Bill Cowher said. "He's upstairs (in the team's facilities), so we'll look at that, assess it, and I'll probably have more information tomorrow."

Fantasy Football Diehards Line:
Cowher, however, did not sound as though he believed the injury was serious. "He looked fine," Cowher said. The injury occurred about 10 minutes before the end of the team's second workout of the day. The third-year quarterback had looked sharp throughout the practice. ... Although the QB has a history of problems with the thumb, Cowher said he does not believe that Roethlisberger's hand or thumb problems are chronic or the result of arthritis. ... More as developments warrant.
