Foote to Undergo Testing

Larry Foote left during the first quarter of the game on Saturday with a knee injury.

Coach Mike Tomlin said that he does not think the injury is major but Foote will undergo tests to be sure.

KDKA's Jory Rand also mentioned last night that Foote may not take part in the Steelers next pre-season game against the Florida Panthers on Thursday, but will be reporting updates on the story on Monday (today).

Rand also reported that Roethlisberger was seen with an ice pack on his ankle and "severely limping" after the game. I could be wrong, but I don't think there's much to this like every other time Ben looks injured - he likes the attention. He looked fine after his time playing in the game was over and the CBS commentators interviewed him (no signs of pain on his face; although there were some major bunny ears!). Then again, maybe he's trying to get the offensive line more motivated to defend him. It's worth a try!! I'm sure we'll hear more about this today.
