Mike Tomlin 'Comfortable' with Ben Roethlisberger's Recovery from Elbow Injury

Steelers coach Mike Tomlin says he's "comfortable" with quarterback Ben Roethlisberger's recovery from an elbow injury, according to the team's website.

Roethlisberger suffered a season-ending elbow injury during week two against the Seattle Seahawks, which forced Pittsburgh to rely on Mason Rudolph and Devlin Hodges for the remainder of the season.

Tomlin said he has not personally seen Roethlisberger work out yet, but that he feels good about the the 38-year-old veteran quarterback's recovery.

"He's comfortable and pleased with where he is. Some of the people that have had an opportunity to work out with him have been impressed and are pleased with where he is.
