Ben Roethlisberger is looking forward to the 2017 season, but he has not asked the Pittsburgh Steelers for any additions.
The quarterback explained his position Wednesday, per Mike Florio of Pro Football Talk:
The report of me lobbying to draft a tight end or pass catcher is wrong. Coaches and teammates know I love the guys we have and always believe we can win. I trust the organization to do their best selecting players to help us, and and every year they tell me generally the positions they are exploring, but I have not lobbied or demanded we add a tight end or pass catcher or any other position through the draft or free agency.
