<div class='quotetop'>QUOTE </div><div class='quotemain'>Pittsburgh Steelers quarterback Ben Roethlisberger suffered a concussion in the Pittsburgh Steelers' loss Sunday to the Atlanta Falcons, sources familiar with the situation told ESPN's Merril Hoge.X-rays and MRIs of Roethlisberger were negative and he has no fractures, but Roethlisberger's status for next Sunday's game at Oakland is uncertain.Against the Falcons, Roethlisberger was injured after taking a blow to the head in the third quarter. Roethlisberger appeared to receive a helmet-to-helmet hit in the face mask from defensive end Chauncey Davis immediately after releasing a pass in the third quarter. Defensive end Patrick Kerney and linebacker Ed Hartwell also hit Roethlisberger on the play.Roethlisberger remained on the turf for at least five minutes before finally wobbling to the sideline, then got wheeled to the locker room on the back of a cart. He did not return to the game and watched the end of the Falcons' 41-38 win in overtime from the sideline.Roethlisberger was not made available to reporters after the game. He was moving slowly and was in obvious discomfort as he put on his shirt and jacket at his locker.It was another blow to the Steelers quarterback, whose season has already been marred by a serious motorcycle accident and an emergency appendectomy.</div>Rest it out Ben, it's not worth losing your ability to do simple things and getting other brain problems earlier than most people.

Yeah, Probably....And just for the record, there is no such thing as a 'Minor Concussion' as it is a progressive and re-occuring injury. Now his entire career will likely be plagued by Concussions and they will progressively get worse each time. It's really a shame.....
