Tomlin denies Big Ben's claim he's out of protocol

PITTSBURGH -- Steelers quarterback Ben Roethlisberger on Tuesday said he has successfully finished concussion protocol after suffering a traumatic ocular migraine late in Sunday's loss to the Seahawks.

Roethlisberger, making his weekly appearance on 93.7 The Fan in Pittsburgh, believes he's concussion-free and expects to play Sunday against the Indianapolis Colts.

He took a hit from Seahawks lineman Michael Bennett that knocked him down and required teammates to help him up.
