Is it possible that the Pittsburgh Steelers are not doing something horribly catastrophic with their decision to retain Ben Roethlisberger through at least the 2021 season, which is what his recent contract renegotiation all but insures–$5 million pay cut and all?
That is what Bruce Gradkowski, an area native and admittedly a friend of Roethlisberger’s as his former backup, recently suggested to host Lance Medow during an appearance on SiriusXM, even if he would largely chalk it up to a lack of alternatives.
“I was concerned of what they had behind Ben. Like, if Ben’s not back, nothing against Dwayne Haskins and Mason Rudolph, but I think the Steelers are better off with Ben right now at the helm”, he said.
