Former teammate Willie Colon said Ben Roethlisberger "seriously" considered retirement this offseason.
"I got to sit down and talk to him and one thing he told me is he did take it seriously," Colon said on
PFT Live. "He’s dealt with a lot of injuries." The Steelers did not seem particularly concerned about the retirement rumors this spring, but perhaps they should be moving forward. Ben will turn 36 next March and could take retirement even more "seriously" if he deals with injuries again this season. Perhaps preparing for the future, the Steelers drafted Josh Dobbs in the fourth round of this year's draft.
