Plaxico On Big Ben: ‘I Think He’s A Great Leader’

The leadership style of Pittsburgh Steelers quarterback Ben Roethlisberger has been under fire so far this offseason as a few former teammates of his, both of whom just happen to be wide receivers, have said during interviews that he needs to tone down how he conducts himself during his weekly radio show. However, another former Steelers wide receiver, Plaxico Burress, made it clear in a recent sit-down interview with Kristen Leahy of ‘Fair Game’ on FS1 that he doesn’t think there’s anything wrong with Roethlisberger’s leadership style.

When asked about what kind of leader that he considers Roethlisberger to be, Burress had nothing but good things to say about the Steelers quarterback that he played with for a total of two seasons in 2004 and 2012.
