NFL inactives: Steelers' Roethlisberger returns

Left tackle Ty Sambrailo is inactive for the fourth consecutive game, leaving the job of protecting Peyton Manning's blind side to Ryan Harris and Tyler Polumbus when the Denver Broncos host the Green Bay Packers.

Sambrailo injured his left shoulder on Sept. 27 at Detroit and hasn't played since. He gave it a go at practice all week, but the coaching staff decided to hold him out again.

Sambrailo, a rookie from Colorado State had hoped the bye week would help him get back to action this weekend.

Also inactive for Denver is third receiver Jordan Norwood, who pulled a hamstring at a particularly cold Friday morning practice.
