PITTSBURGH (AP) – Pittsburgh Steelers quarterback Ben Roethlisberger will play on Sunday against Cincinnati. Roethlisberger has been dealing with a bruised chest that limited his participation in practice this week. Star outside linebacker T.J. Watt won’t play against the Bengals. The team has downgraded Watt to out for its Week 3 game. Watt is dealing with a groin injury. The Steelers listed the All-Pro as questionable on Friday’s injury report. Watt got hurt in the second quarter of last weekend’s 26-17 loss to Las Vegas. Outside linebacker Alex Highsmith, wide receiver Diontae Johnson and defensive lineman Carlos Davis are also out. Cornerback Joe Haden and linebacker Devin Bush, who missed last week’s game, are set to play.
