The Facts:
Roethlisberger's right thumb injury apparently is not serious and he could play Saturday night against the Vikings.
Reported by the Associated Press
Fantasy Football Diehards Line:
Roethlisberger missed the last few minutes of practice Wednesday after hitting his thumb on a shoulder pad, helmet or catching it in a jersey. He was examined before practice ended and returned for the conditioning and stretching drills that end each workout. He was held out of practice Thursday, and the team will decide Friday if he will play Saturday. ... Bill Cowher once again stressed there is no indication this latest injury is related to last year's thumb injury.
