Ben Roethlisberger could set dubious NFL record in 2019

The Pittsburgh Steelers are one of the lucky franchises who have had a franchise quarterback under center for over a decade. You have to go back to the Tommy Maddox era the last time fans had to ask who would be the starting quarterback the upcoming season. But that doesn’t mean it has always been easy for Ben Roethlisberger.

Since being drafted 11th overall in the 2004 NFL Draft, Roethlisberger has won his share of games, but has also been in the cross-hairs of the opposition with a high frequency. Yes, I’m talking about taking sacks, and Roethlisberger has taken his share of hits throughout his time in the NFL.
