Pittsburgh Steelers offensive tackles Willie Colon and Max Starks say their team's injured star quarterback, Ben Roethlisberger, should be fine.

The offensive linemen said they were confident Roethlisberger will be able to bounce back from an apparent left knee injury he suffered during practice Wednesday, the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette reported Thursday.

"I'm pretty sure he'll be all right," Colon said.

"I didn't even notice it until I saw him getting his knee stretched out. The good thing is it's OTAs," Starks said, referring to voluntary organized team activities. "I'm sure it's just a nick and he'll be fine."

The Steelers and team Coach Mike Tomlin have offered no comment on the injury to the star quarterback, who helped lead the NFL franchise to a Super Bowl victory last season.

The Post-Gazette said Roethlisberger was seen limping off the practice field Wednesday, adding the quarterback had no comment as he left practice in civilian clothes with no apparent knee support.
