Despite attempts by Antonio Brown, Le’Veon Bell and the national media to portray Pittsburgh Steelers quarterback Ben Roethlisberger as the devil incarnate, comments from a number of his current and former teammates have contradicted that characterization as of late. But perhaps none more so than the revelations of wide receiver Ryan Switzer on Monday.
