Ben Roethlisberger downplays reports about an argument with Antonio Brown

The Pittsburgh Steelers were in the news for all the wrong reasons once again on Monday after reports of an alleged argument between Antonio Brown and Ben Roethlisberger hit the headlines. Despite having been officially ruled out of the game on Sunday because of a knee injury, an article by Ed Bouchette and Gerry Dulac of the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette suggested a very different reason for his absence.

Allegedly, Brown sat out the week of practice following a heated disagreement with Roethlisberger, a decision that would ultimately lead to him being benched on Sunday by the coaching staff.
