The Pittsburgh Steelers quarterback Ben Roethlisberger now has been convinced that he should not play while still having symptoms of concussion, after having some conversation with teammate Hines Ward, who questioned earlier this week why Roethlisberger did not play last Sunday’s loss to the Ravens because of concussion and apologized for the remarks later.
“He reached out to me and I told him I was just hurt more than anything else,” Roethlisberger said Thursday. “You know, we got over it, moved past it and now we’re preparing.”
He himself was even shocked when he put on his Steelers jersey but was told by Coach Mike Tomlin that he would not play before last Sunday’s game. But after spending some time considering the reasons for the benching, he now understands the necessity of the move. So it was no wonder why Ward was so frustrated with the loss to say unfriendly of Roethlisberger without knowing that a team doctor recommended Roethlisberger not to play because of post-concussion headaches.
