Colbert on Roethlisberger: ‘All signs are good’

The Steelers remain cautiously optimistic regarding the health status Ben Roethlisberger, though they still don't have clarification on when he will resume throwing again.

That clearance could come as soon as Feb. 21, when Roethlisberger has a checkup in Los Angeles with Dr. Neal ElAttrache of the Cedars-Sinai Kerlan Jobe Institute. In the meantime, the Steelers are moving forward as if they will have their two-time Super Bowl-winning quarterback back and healthy in 2020.

"All signs are good. Where that goes, we’re hopeful he can make a complete recovery," Steelers general manager Kevin Colbert said Thursday.
