PITTSBURGH — Ben Roethlisberger, accompanied by bodyguards and wearing a hood to cover facial injuries from a motorcycle crash, visited the Pittsburgh Steelers' offices Tuesday, a Pittsburgh newspaper reported.

Roethlisberger stopped by headquarters for the first time since the accident eight days ago to pick up mail and other items. He did not participate in any physical workouts or speak to reporters, the newspaper reported on its Web site Tuesday.

Team coaches who saw Roethlisberger said the swelling and bruising that was apparent on the quarterback's neck and face last week had subsided, the newspaper reported.

Roethlisberger rammed his Suzuki Hayabusa into a Chrysler New Yorker on June 12, when the car made a left turn in front of him on a Pittsburgh street. Both vehicles had the green light, police said.

Roethlisberger underwent seven hours of surgery to repair a broken jaw and other facial bones. Tests showed no brain injuries, although he had a mild concussion. He also lost two teeth and chipped several others.

Police said Roethlisberger did not have a valid motorcycle license when he crashed. Police said Monday they would cite him for riding without a license and not wearing a helmet because only licensed motorcyclists are allowed to ride bareheaded in Pennsylvania, with certain restrictions. Roethlisberger faced fines and fees totaling $388.

The car's driver, a 62-year-old woman who, police said, has received threatening phone calls since the crash, was to be cited for failing to yield.
