Roethlisberger scoffs at NFL Network report of meeting with Tomlin
When they make this a big drama like we went in and shut the door and hashed things out, it is completely false,” Roethlisberger said. “It is true in a sense that we went in and sat down, but we do that every week anyway. I am not sure why it became such a big deal this week.”
Roethlisberger went on to criticize the league-owned network.
“It always amazes me how the NFL Network, like do they bug everything? Are they assuming everything,” Roethlisberger said. “They are the ones who reported a few years ago that I asked to be traded, which had zero truth to it, no facts to it. I always wonder where they get this information.”
Roethlisberger did say that he did have a meeting with Tomlin last week after the team lost their third consecutive*game to fall to 4-4. He did not deny the topic of accountability being brought up during his sit down with Tomlin. He*did make it clear that meetings like the one with Tomlin happen routinely.
“Being the quarterback, a veteran and a leader of this team, coach Tomlin and I talk multiple times during the week,” Roethlisberger said. “There isn’t a week that goes by that we don’t have a behind-closed-doors talk and communication — state of the team, what I thought of the team, what I thought of the game, what I thought of the offense, what I thought of my play.”
