Colbert On Possible Big Ben Extension: ‘Lets Get Through The Draft, See Where We Stand’

There’s been a little bit of talk so far this offseason about the Pittsburgh Steelers potentially signing quarterback Ben Roethlisberger to a contract extension prior to the start of the 2018 regular season and especially since he indicated a few months ago that he hopes to possibly play at least three more seasons. So far, such a contract extension has yet to happen and now that team has presumably already paid Roethlisberger the $5 million roster bonus he was reportedly due just after the start of the new league year earlier this month, the general consensus now seems to be that the quarterback’s contract will be put on the back burner until next offseason.
