Pittsburgh Steelers quarterback Ben Roethlisberger isn't quite ready to head off into retirement. Roethlisberger announced on Twitter Friday that he's told the Steelers he plans to be under center in 2017. Though everyone from coach Mike Tomlin to general manager Kevin Colbert to team president Art Rooney II believed Roethlisberger would be back, Roethlisberger kept quiet publicly until Friday. "As an organization, we have been hopeful that Ben would return this year," Tomlin said on Friday in a release on the team's website. Roethlisberger passed for 3,819 yards and 29 touchdowns for Pittsburgh as the Steelers went 11-5 and won the AFC North for the second time in three years.
