Are Roethlisberger’s Comments On Practice Being Too Physical Out Of Line?

Pittsburgh Steelers quarterback Ben Roethlisberger caused quite a stir during his Tuesday interview on 93.7 The Fan with the comments he made on how physical the team’s practices are and how he thinks that might somewhat be playing a role in all of the injuries that have occurred so far this season.

“We have a lot of injuries and I think that a lot of our stuff stems from we’re one of the most physical football teams in training camps, in practice – we do more hitting than most teams do and more pads, Roethlisberger said Tuesday.
