Roethlisberger, Heyward, Gay, Golden Voted Steelers Captains For 2015

The Pittsburgh Steelers have announced their captains for the upcoming 2015 season and the choices aren’t overly surprising.

The #Steelers announced the 2015 captains this morning: OFF – B. Roethlisberger; DEF – C. Heyward, W. Gay; ST – R. Golden.

Quarterback Ben Roethlisberger, as expected, was named offensive team captain on Sunday. This is the fifth straight year that Roethlisberger has been at least a co-captain on offense and the seventh time during his career.

Defensive end Cameron Heyward and cornerback William Gay will be co-captains of the defense in 2015.
