From Teresa Varley’s article at Steelers.com:
Ben’s still Ben: Ben Roethlisberger will turn 34 on March 2, but Steelers’ President Art Rooney II said it isn’t time to start looking for his replacement. Roethlisberger, who signed a new five-year deal last March which will keep him with the Steelers through the 2019 season, threw for 3,938 yards in 2015, his 10th straight season throwing for at least 3,000 yards.
“I don’t think we are starting down that road of who is next after Ben,” said Rooney. “Obviously we have some work to do in terms of who are the backups. We will have some evaluation to do there. As far as I am concerned, Ben didn’t show much sign of falling off this year. So I am looking forward to at least several more years with Ben as our quarterback.”
