Ben Roethlisberger Falls Another Notch In All-Time Record Books, But May Be Safe From Philip Rivers

While Ben Roethlisberger may not have to worry about Philip Rivers’ threat, Matthew Stafford just passed him in the record books. With a 269-yard effort last night, he climbed into sixth place on the all-time passing yardage list. He went into the night 100 yards behind Roethlisberger, sitting at 64,088. Now with 64,257, he knocks the former Steelers great down a peg.

Roethlisberger retired fifth on the all-time passing yardage list, but two players passed him this season. One, in fact, did it wearing the Black and Gold, as Aaron Rodgers eclipsed Big Ben’s mark in 2025.
