Based on comments made Wednesday by Pittsburgh Steelers general manager Kevin Colbert, fans of the team can probably expect quarterback Ben Roethlisberger to continue on with his in season radio show that sometimes includes him publicly criticizing teammates for things they might have done wrong during games.
According to Jeremy Fowler of ESPN.com on Wednesday, Colbert “emphatically endorsed” Roethlisberger as the team’s leader moving forward during the general manager’s session with the local media. Colbert even went as far as to point to Roethlisberger’s role ahead of the Steelers double-digit comeback attempt against the Jacksonville Jaguars in the playoffs a few years ago as an example of the quarterback’s prime leadership abilities.
