If you were watching the pre game build up to Week 15 on the NFL Network last Sunday, you may have seen seen a breaking news segment from Ian Rapoport revealing some “insider” information about the true extent of the rib injury Ben Roethlisberger suffered at the hands of the Oakland Raiders.
Detailing a scoop no one else in the media was privy to, Rapoport informed viewers that Big Ben was actually dealing with a much more significant injury than Pittsburgh was letting on. Citing sources within the Steelers’ organization, Rapoport revealed that Roethlisberger would essentially be dealing with cracked ribs for the remainder of the season.
