The wait may soon be over. According to a report in The Pittsburgh Post-Gazette, the Steelers are expecting to learn Roger Goodell’s decision in the Ben Roethlisberger case on Wednesday.
Roger Goodell’s Decision On Ben Roethlisberger Expected Wednesday
Roethlisberger was not charged in the case in Milledgeville, Ga., in which he was accused by a 20-year-old college student of assaulting her in a nightclub bathroom. But he is expected to be suspended by the league for what Goodell referred to as repeated bad judgment.
Art Rooney II said in a press conference last Thursday that the Steelers will work with Goodell to determine the punishment, which would include the length of the suspension.
With it seemingly inevitable at this point that the punishment will involve a suspension of some length (four games seems to be the most popular rumor), Pittsburgh added some depth to the quarterback position by trading for Byron Leftwich on Tuesday.
