Ben Roethlisberger Makes MVP Case For Jaylen Warren
Since 1987, quarterbacks have won the NFL MVP award 33 times. Running backs are the only other position to claim the honor, doing so just eight times. It’s a quarterback-dominated award, but when a non-QB breaks through, it’s usually a running back. Ben Roethlisberger thinks Jaylen Warren deserves a shot at joining that exclusive group this year.
“This guy needs to start to be talked about in some MVP stuff,” Ben Roethlisberger said on his Footbahlin podcast. “Like league MVP or offensive MVP. His numbers and some of the stuff he’s doing is pretty impressive.”
Roethlisberger’s instinct is correct. Warren is on a historic pace, even with a slow start to the season for Pittsburgh’s offense.
