Pittsburgh Steelers rookie quarterback Josh Dobbs is set to make his second consecutive start Sunday against the Atlanta Falcons in Heinz Field.
The team notified Ben Roethlisberger he's not playing against Atlanta but will suit up Aug. 26 against the Indianapolis Colts, the quarterback said on an appearance with 93.7 The Fan in Pittsburgh.
Backup Landry Jones is missing practices with an abdominal injury, leaving Dobbs and Bart Houston as the primary quarterbacks against the Falcons.
Dobbs completed 8-of-15 passes for 100 yards, one touchdown and two interceptions Friday against the New York Giants.
