Three years to the month since he drove head first on his motorcycle into a Chrysler, Steelers quarterback Ben Roethlisberger has suffered another injury.

According to Ed Bouchette of the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette, Roethlisberger quit in the middle of a Wednesday morning practice after hurting his left knee. He reportedly limped heavily around the field, and he still was limping an hour after suffering the injury.

He was limping even after practice, but he had no brace or wrap or other device on the leg.

Both Roethlisberger and coach Mike Tomlin declined to talk about the injury.

The Steelers have one more practice this week and three next week before shutting down until training camp.

PITTSBURGH -- Steelers quarterback Ben Roethlisberger returned to practice Thursday, one day after he limped off the field following a collision with running back Willie Parker.

Roethlisberger had his left knee wrapped, the only sign of the mishap that occurred during the Steelers' optional offseason workouts.

Roethlisberger apparently didn't require treatment following the collision, although he was seen limping out of the Steelers' practice complex shortly after the workout ended Wednesday.
