For the first time, QB Ben Roethlisberger opened up about the specifics of his 2019 season-ending elbow surgery. During his Zoom call with the media, he said he tore three of the five flexor tendons in his elbow.
Ben Roethlisberger: "There's no real name for it, it's not Tommy John. Tehre are flexor tendons attached to your elbow. I tore three of them (of the five)."
