Pittsburgh, PA (Sports Network) -
Pittsburgh Steelers head coach Mike Tomlin said quarterback Ben Roethlisberger sustained a concussion in Sunday's game against Kansas City, but added that he expects the veteran signal-caller to be back at practice this week after passing a series of tests on Monday.
Roethlisberger was hurt in overtime of the 27-24 loss when he was struck in the helmet by the knee of Kansas City linebacker Derrick Johnson.
