Ben Roethlisberger Practicing, Hopes to Play Sunday

Say what you want about Pittsburgh Steelers quarterback Ben Roethlisberger off the field, but he's one tough dude between the white chalk. 

Less than a week after suffering a mid-foot injury against the Oakland Raiders, Big Ben is back at practice. In a walking boot up until Thursday, the future Hall of Fame quarterback rid himself of that contraption and showed up on the field with the rest of his teammates. 

Considering the expectation was that Big Ben would be out at least two weeks, this is some rather big news for a Steelers team right in the mix for a wildcard spot in the AFC. 

Taking on an injury-plagued Cleveland Browns secondary, Pittsburgh should be able to feast through the air. That's only magnified by the team's 600-plus yard performance against the Raiders last week. 

If Big Ben is a go (will likely be a game-time decision), he's a must start in nearly all formats. With the star power he has at the skill positions and going up against a substandard defense, the Steelers quarterback will be among the best fantasy quarterbacks should he see the field.
