Ben Roethlisberger and Steelers likely to extend and restructure contract

Pittsburgh Steelers quarterback Ben Roethlisberger is expected to extend and restructure his contract.

What It Means:

This makes a ton of sense as the team is still trying to figure out how to deal with wide receiver Antonio Brown. Trading Brown would result in a huge cap hit, the impact of which would be lessened by restructuring Big Ben's deal.

Roethlisberger finished with a career high 452 completions, 5,129 yards, and 34 touchdowns. The completions and yardage led the league.
