PITTSBURGH (AP) Steelers quarterback Ben Roethlisberger (here seen leaving the hospital), appears likely to play this season. Previously his helmetless head had shattered a car windshield, after which he was then tossed high into the air. During an accident on his 200 miles per hour 2005 Suzuki Hayabusa.

Roethlisberger might miss part or most of training camp but could be ready for the Sept. 7 opener against Miami. Dr. Larry Jones, the chief of Mercy Hospital's trauma unit said that Roethlisberger's brain was functioning normally, although the QB has a concussion.

To avoid any potential difficulties with team management, new contract clauses, or the continued wrath of fans. Roethlisberger will now only indulge in going really fast on a Razor scooter while yelling yippee!
