Ben Roethlisberger is known for being one of the toughest quarterbacks to ever play the game of football. He played through broken noses and high-ankle sprains numerous times, along with countless other injuries. Despite all of this he still had his moments when he was scared.
One of those moments was the first snap of his NFL career. Coming in for the injured Tommy Maddox, Roethlisberger had to go face to face with the vaunted Baltimore Ravens’ defense. On his podcast, Footbahlin’, he recalled how he felt in the lead up to his first snap.
