Roethlisberger Will Wear Brace, Hopes To Wear Normal Shoe Sunday

As Ben Roethlisberger recently admitted, he won’t be fully healthy until well after the season ends, but is hopeful to make one small step this Sunday. He plans to wear his regular shoes, replacing his oversized left shoe to compensate for the foot sprain suffered in Week 9 against the Oakland Raiders.

Dale Lolley first reported the news.
