Ben Roethlisberger Injury Update: Steelers QB Will Start vs. Denver Broncos

Despite suffering a separated shoulder in the win over the Cincinnati Bengals, Pittsburgh Steelers quarterback Ben Roethlisberger will start in Sunday's AFC Divisional Round matchup against the Denver Broncos.

Steelers.com did not include Roethlisberger on the list of inactive players, which did include Michael Vick.

Against Cincinnati, Roethlisberger went down late in the third quarter on a Vontaze Burfict sack. The 33-year-old was replaced by Landry Jones for nearly the entire fourth quarter before returning for Pittsburgh's game-winning drive. He completed five of his seven passes on the drive, including a 12-yard completion to wide receiver Antonio Brown on a 4th-and-3 situation.
