As things stand right now, 2019 is scheduled to be the final contract year for Pittsburgh Steelers quarterback Ben Roethlisberger. However, and probably not surprisingly, Adam Schefter of ESPN reported Saturday morning that the Steelers are expected to restructure and extend Roethlisberger’s contract before the 2019 NFL league begins in the middle of March
Schefter’s report isn’t earth-shattering and especially when you consider that Roethlisberger is due a $5 million roster bonus at the start of the new league year in addition to 2019 currently being his final year under contract.
