Steelers quarterback Ben Roethlisberger left Sunday's game against the Oakland Raiders after taking a big hit at end of first half. Josh Dobbs has replaced him, according to a report from Adam Schefter. Burt Lauten, the Steelers director of communications, tweeted that Roethlisberger sustained a rib injury and is questionable to return. (Adam Schefter on Twitter)

Fantasy Impact:

Head coach Mike Tomlin said that he expected Roethlisberger to return to the game, but he is apparently still being evaluated by trainers. Monitor his status for updates throughout the rest of Sunday's game, but Dobbs is in at quarterback for the time being.
