PITTSBURGH -- Ben Roethlisberger doesn't understand why the Denver Broncos thought he was pretending to have a shoulder injury, saying on his weekly appearance with 93.7 The Fan Pittsburgh that he took a painkilling shot to get through Sunday's game, the first time in his career he's done so.
The Pittsburgh Steelers quarterback said he wouldn't have finished the game without it.
"Unbelievable, right? Makes no sense but it is what it is," Roethlisberger said of the skepticism.
