Pittsburgh Steelers wide receiver Antonio Brown has responded to the recent comments of New Orleans Saints defensive end Cameron Jordan, which centered around Ben Roethlisberger's status as one of the NFL's best.
Jordan said on Thursday that he believed there were multiple quarterbacks in this era that are better than Roethlisberger, which produced plenty of reaction from Steelers fans.
And now Brown is one of the people responding to the diss from Jordan, but he doesn't seem overly concerned with putting too much stock in what the Saints playmaker had to say.
Here are Brown's thoughts on the matter, courtesy of Chris Adamski of TribLIVE.com:
“What do you want me to say? He’s a Hall of Fame quarterback,” Brown said after practice Friday. “You all know that, right?”
Brown also went to address Jordan's comments directly:
“Everyone has an opinion,” Brown said. “Doesn’t mean they are right or wrong.”
Roethlisberger has certainly accomplished a lot during his NFL career, so it seems likely that there will be some added fuel to what should already be a huge game on Sunday.
The Steelers remain at the top of the AFC North after snapping their three-game losing streak in the Week 15 win over the New England Patriots, and they'd love to keep their momentum going so that they can officially clinch a spot in the playoffs.
After the matchup in New Orleans, the Steelers will return to Heinz Field in Week 17 to finish up the regular season against the Cincinnati Bengals.
