Roethlisberger Says Brown Is Causing A Distraction Team Doesn’t Need

Pittsburgh Steelers wide receiver Antonio Brown threw a temper tantrum of sorts during Sunday’s win over the Baltimore Ravens after quarterback Ben Roethlisberger didn’t throw him the football in the second quarter when he was wide-open on a third down play.

While a lot of Browns teammates have since brushed that tantrum off as it just being a result of the wide receiver’s passion for the game and him just wanting to help the team win, Roethlisberger publicly reprimanded his wide receiver during his Tuesday morning interview on 93.7 The Fan.

“He got upset because he was open, which I can understand,” Roethlisberger explained.
