Roethlisberger, 37, already was signed through this season, but this new deal likely means that he will finish out his career in Pittsburgh. No more details have been released on the terms of the deal. He has already been to six Pro Bowls and won two Super Bowls with the franchise.
Pittsburgh missed the playoffs last season and have a new feel heading into the season, as Le’Veon Bell and Antonio Brown have joined new teams.
He has passed for 56,194 yards, 363 touchdowns and 190 interceptions on 64.4 percent completion in his career. He is sixth on the all-time passing list for the NFL. Roethlisberger led the league in passing yards last season.
