Ben Roethlisberger on a recent episode of his podcast admitted that part of him hoped that Kenny Pickett would fail as his successor with the Pittsburgh Steelers. He admitted it was tough for him to see someone other than himself play quarterback for the Steelers. In the same breath, however, he admitted that he feels bad to have ever felt like that and he no longer has those feelings.
Roethlisberger admitted that he felt that way mainly because he didn’t want people to forget him if Pickett balled out. It has been an adjustment for the man that destroyed the Browns for all those years but it sounds like he is all behind Pickett now.
