Antonio Brown is officially gone. Le’Veon Bell is officially gone. So the ‘drama’ is over with the Pittsburgh Steelers, right? Enter 2014 practice squad running back Josh Harris, who accused quarterback Ben Roethlisberger of deliberately fumbling late in a victory over the Cincinnati Bengals toward the end of the regular season that year, arguing that it was in protest of a run call when he wanted to take a knee.
His initial accusation was simply a reply on Twitter, but when the comment was picked up, he made a video detailing his explanation, and later was quoted in an article by Robert Klemko as he used that incident to justify characterizing Roethlisberger as a problem in the Steelers’ locker room.
