There has been a lot of talk about Ben Roethlisberger and Antonio Brown the last few days but according to the Pittsburgh Steelers star quarterback, he has no issue with his receiver. There was a report out by ESPN that Roethlisberger and Brown went at last week during practice and Brown actually chucked a football in his direction. Roethlisberger said on his weekly appearance radio appearance that if there was a blowout by Roethlisberger he didn't see it.

“If there was a blowout, I certainly didn't see it,” Roethlisberger said Tuesday on his weekly radio appearance with 93.7 the Fan Pittsburgh via ESPN.

Roethlisberger said that he and Brown talked before the week was over and everything was good between them. He understands players get frustrated and that it is all part of the game.

“I'm blessed to play with him,” he said. “I consider him one of my closer friends … Each guy has to answer that question (about welcoming him back to the locker room). I know guys are frustrated, some of the guys I talked to, that they tried to reach out to him and didn't hear back.”

Coach Mike Tomlin is expected to meet with the media on Wednesday and there are going to be a lot of questions about Brown's future with the team.

Many have asked if the team will trade him and although it would be a big cap hit if they did if it has gotten that bad maybe that is what the team needs to do. It sounds like if Big Ben has anything to say about it, Brown will be back with the team next year.
