Less than a week before the Steelers travels to Foxborough to play the New England Patriots, Pittsburgh has named their team captains for the 2019 season.
According to Teresa Varley of Steelers.com, Pittsburgh’s team captains this season will be quarterback Ben Roethlisberger, center Maurkice Pouncey, defensive lineman Cameron Heyward, and fullback Roosevelt Nix.
There aren’t a lot of surprises to be had here, as each one of these players has been captains in the past.
Maurkice Pouncey is the leader and signal-caller of Pittsburgh’s offensive line. The 7-time Pro Bowler has been a staple in keeping Ben upright since 2010.
