Pittsburgh Steelers longtime center Maurkice Pouncey announced his retirement on Friday and with him now no longer playing there’s heavy speculation that his decision to step away this offseason might impact the decision of quarterback Ben Roethlisberger to return for the 2021 season. After breaking Pouncey’s new Friday morning, former Steelers guard Ramon Foster was asked during an interview on 93.7 The Fan if he has any inside on Roethlisberger and where his mind might be now that Pouncey has decided to retire.
“With Maurkice, you know, bowing out right now, I’m not sure what’s going to happen with seven [Roethlisberger],” Foster said.
