It’s hard to put into words the amount of gratitude I’ve felt in the last few weeks. I’ve been preparing for the moment I got to start in my first NFL playoff game my entire life, but never did I imagine it would be with a future Hall of Famer like Ben Roethlisberger. #HereWeGo
Congrats Ben on a legendary 18-yr career, 2 Rings, and never having had a losing season. It’s been an honor to be front row for a portion of it. Best wishes for you, Ashley and the kids. God Bless!🚀#HallOfFameBound

Back in 1999-I was a young sportscaster and @steelers @_BigBen7 Ben Roethlisberger was a high school senior & QB at Findlay High School. […]
Ben: ‘I’m proud to play with these guys’
“I’m proud to play with these guys. God has blessed me with an ability to throw a football and has blessed me to play in the greatest city, in Pittsburgh with the greatest fans and the greatest football team and players. And it has just been truly a blessing and I’m so thankful to Him for the opportunity that He’s given me.”
From Teresa Varley, Steelers.com:
On a night that Ben Roethlisberger wanted nothing more than to deliver another win for Steelers Nation, and just weeks after saying that “all signs are pointing” to it being the final season of his career, he instead was talking about what the season – and the Steelers – meant to him after the 42-21 loss to the Kansas City Chiefs in the Wild Card Round.
“Just a bunch of guys that fought for each other, that fought their butts off and just competed. It wasn’t always pretty, but there are a lot of games that we found a way. I’m so proud of this group of men and the way they fight for each other, for the black and gold, for our fans. It’s just been an honor to play with them.”
Roethlisberger has epitomized what it means to be a member of the Pittsburgh Steelers, is someone who understands the tradition of the organization, and hopes the one thing he has done is pass along that legacy to younger players when talking about the impact he has had on the franchise.
“I’ve been here a long time, and it’s been a lot of fun,” said Roethlisberger. “Like I said, God has blessed me. We joke about the Browns and going there (in the NFL Draft), but it was meant to be that I was going to wear black and gold. Draft day I had a black suit on with a gold tie.
“I’m just so thankful. I hope that that I’m able to pass the legacy of what it is to be a Steeler from Dan Rooney. We all miss him, anyone that knew him misses him. Hopefully I can pass some of that on to some of the guys and they can continue the tradition of what it means to be a Steeler and get passed down.
“Whenever you get a bunch of new guys, once […]
