Roethlisberger injured his ankle in Sunday’s 30-12 AFC wild card win over the Miami Dolphins on his last pass attempt of the game when Dolphins defensive end Cameron Wake appeared to land on the 34-year-old’s foot.

Roethlisberger was seen limping after the game while wearing a walking boot.

The Steelers play the Kansas City Chiefs in the divisional round of the AFC playoffs on Sunday.
