Kevin Colbert: Steelers Want To Make Sure Ben Roethlisberger ‘Doesn’t Get Too Far Ahead Of Himself’

For the Pittsburgh Steelers and their fans, it’s impossible not to get excited over the prospect of quarterback Ben Roethlisberger making a successful recovery, and to do so as soon as possible. He is seemingly ahead of schedule, advanced to throwing footballs, rather than ‘light throwing’, following surgery to repair an elbow injury that ended hi 2019 season after just a game and a half’s worth of play.

While it’s great, naturally, to see Roethlisberger making significant and tangible progress, it’s also necessary to urge caution and plead for patience, which is why I recently posited a Buy or Sell statement as to whether or not he will participate as soon as OTAs in a throwing capacity.
