Pittsburgh Steelers quarterback Ben Roethlisberger connected with rookie running back Najee Harris on a 25-yard touchdown pass Sunday in the team’s 26-17 home loss to the Las Vegas Raiders.
The throw extended Roethlisberger’s streak of games with at least one touchdown pass to 18, which the longest active streak in the NFL including playoffs.

The streak began with last year’s season-opening win over the New York Giants, a game in which Roethlisberger threw a trio of touchdowns.
The 39-year-old has thrown for 483 yards and two scores with one interception this season.
