PITTSBURGH — Pittsburgh Steelers quarterback Ben Roethlisberger has been named the AFC Offensive Player of the Week for the 18th time in his career.

After having been on the Reserve/COVID-19 List from Nov. 10 until the day before the game, not being able to practice all week didn’t seem to have much of an effect on him.
“I attribute it to the guys around me,” Roethlisberger said. “I attribute it to the offensive line, no sacks. They gave me time to throw it against a lot of crazy looks and blitzes. I attribute it to the coaching staff for getting me ready to play, and all of us ready to play.”
