Ryan Switzer Was ‘Ready To Retire’ Before Big Ben And Co. Made Him Feel Welcome In Pittsburgh

Some people have had some bad things to say about Pittsburgh Steelers quarterback Ben Roethlisberger lately. Others have had some good things to say about him. Amazing, isn’t it? It’s almost as though different people have different experiences with people—and different interpretations of those experiences based on shared personality differences and circumstances.

One of the most enthusiastic supporters of Roethlisberger this offseason has been his newest wide receiver Ryan Switzer, whom the Steelers acquired shortly before the start of the regular season in 2018. Looking for a return man, Pittsburgh sent a fifth-round pick for him and a sixth-round pick from the Oakland Raiders.
