Roethlisberger Says Previously Injured Elbow To Blame For Sailing Some Passes

While Pittsburgh Steelers quarterback Ben Roethlisberger enters Week 6 as the AFC’s leader in passing yards, he’s been very inconsistent with his throws so far through the team’s first five regular season games of 2018. While quite a few of Roethlisberger’s incompletions to date have been deep passes that ultimately landed out of bounds, several others that have been in the field of play have seemingly sailed on him.

During his weekly interview Tuesday morning on 93.7 The Fan, Roethlisberger was asked about how sharp he looked throwing the football in the second half of the team’s Sunday home win over the Atlanta Falcons and if that was a result of him making some sort of a mechanical adjustment to his throwing motion at halftime.
