PITTSBURGH (AP) — Ben Roethlisberger is practicing for the first time since injuring his right foot during the team’s final training camp practice.

Steelers coach Mike Tomlin said Roethlisberger will play in Saturday night’s exhibition game against Buffalo and “won’t be limited in any form or fashion.”

Roethlisberger sat out last Saturday’s preseason game against Washington, two days after left tackle Max Starks accidentally stepped on the quarterback’s right foot minutes before Pittsburgh ended training camp at Saint Vincent College in Latrobe.

During practice on Tuesday, Roethlisberger took part in individual drills but did not take any snaps until the last series of the day.

“We like where he is,” Tomlin said.
