Thanksgiving special for Roethlisberger with "Little Ben" Nov 22nd 2012, 20:35 Thu Nov 22, 2012 3:35pm EST (Reuters) - Ailing two-time Super Bowl winner Ben Roethlisberger had a special reason to celebrate Thanksgiving on Thursday after his wife Ashley gave birth to their first child the previous evening. Benjamin Jr. weighed 7 lbs. and 1 oz when he was born at 10:06 p.m. local on Wednesday, the Pittsburgh Steelers quarterback said on his official website ( "We want to thank everyone for their thoughts and prayers, it really means a lot to us. God is so good!" Roethlisberger, popularly known as 'Big Ben', has not played since he sprained a joint in his right shoulder against the Kansas City Chiefs on November 12 when he was sacked by linebacker Justin Houston in the third quarter. Pittsburgh have won an NFL-best six Super Bowl titles but their grip on a postseason berth could be in jeopardy depending on how long Roethlisberger is out of action.
