Pittsburgh Steelers quarterback Ben Roethlisberger returned from a rib injury with under five minutes to go versus the Oakland Raiders as his team trailed 17-14.

Roethlisberger played every snap of the first half and threw a touchdown seconds before halftime, but was surprisingly absent to start the second half.

Joshua Dobbs filled in at quarterback during his absence, and completed four of nine passes for 24 yards with an interception.
