Steelers need to upgrade Ben Roethlisberger’s backup situation

While 2019 was a season to forget for Ben Roethlisberger, the veteran quarterback has enjoyed a marvelous career with the Pittsburgh Steelers. A career that Roethlisberger is looking to continue in 2020 despite being 38-years-old with two Super Bowl wins under his belt.

Last season, the Pittsburgh signal-caller missed all but two games thanks to an elbow injury. Some were initially skeptical about Roethlisberger ever returning to the field, but he has made it known that he has every intention of continuing to play next season.

It’s great that the longtime Steelers quarterback is looking to return to the huddle in 2020, but it’s hard to anticipate how his latest injury will affect his abilities to do his job well.
