Steelers' Ben Roethlisberger reclaims hometown of Findlay, Ohio

PITTSBURGH - Ben Roethlisberger is putting his reconciliation with Findlay, Ohio, on paper.

The Pittsburgh Steelers quarterback says he intends to list Findlay as his hometown in the team's 2017 media guide. From 2010-16, Roethlisberger listed Cory Rawson, Ohio, as his birthplace. Before then, it was Findlay.

Upon induction into the Hancock County sports hall of fame on April 22, Roethlisberger addressed the frayed relationship with his hometown based on criticism from some locals around 2010, when he faced a sexual assault allegation in Georgia but wasn't charged.
