    The Steelers got a scare Thursday when quarterback Ben Roethlisberger accidentally stepped on a foot, causing him to miss part of their final full-scale practice for this weekend’s Bengals game, Alan Robinson of the Pittsburgh Tribune-Review reports.

    “I stepped on someone’s foot and rolled my ankle a little,â€￾ said Roethlisberger, who was limping slightly in the locker room and had ice on his right ankle after practice. Byron Leftwich finished up with the starters.

    Teammates were uncertain who Roethlisberger stepped on, with tackle Mike Adams saying it might have been an assistant coach.

    The injury is not believed to be serious and should not affect Roethlisberger’s status as the Steelers (2-3) try to end their three-game road losing streak Sunday night. He broke the same foot two years ago.
