Kevin Colbert ‘Very Fortunate’ To Have Ben Roethlisberger For Majority Of His GM Career

This offseason for the Pittsburgh Steelers has been one of great change overall for the black and gold.

From the retirement of Ben Roethlisberger to the impending retirement of longtime GM Kevin Colbert, two of the biggest figureheads outside of head coach Mike Tomlin are moving on after two decades of work in the city of Pittsburgh.

Months removed from Roethlisberger hanging his cleats up for the final time, and just days removed from Colbert’s final draft as GM of the Steelers, the change is nearly complete as Colbert has set the Steelers up in a strong position moving forward at the quarterback position post-Roethlisberger with the signing of veteran Mitch Trubisky in free agency, and the selections of Kenny Pickett and Chris Oladokun in the draft last weekend.
