?Big Ben? to start preseason game

Ben Roethlisberger will start the Pittsburgh Steelers’ exhibition game at Arizona on Saturday, two months to the day of the serious motorcycle accident that left him with a broken jaw, nose and other facial injuries.

Roethlisberger has been lobbying coach Bill Cowher since camp opened July 28 to allow him to play, but Cowher had not confirmed until Thursday that the quarterback would start, but will play only a series or two.
