Drew Brees Inadvertently Helping Big Ben Stay With Steelers?

Over the weekend...the news was released that the New Orleans Saints and Drew Brees have agreed to restructure his contract. He will make the veterans' minimum in 2021...instead of the $25 million he was scheduled to make. Which saves the cap-strapped Saints $24 million in salary cap space.

Fans in Pittsburgh that want Big Ben Roethlisberger back with the Steelers next season believed this was good news. With Brees taking far less money...perhaps Big Ben can do the same. He has publicly stated he isn't worried about money...he is worried about winning.

We explain why Brees and Roethlisberger are two completely different situations...and how the situation in New Orleans will have no impact on Big Ben and the Steelers. We go over a couple of options the Steelers could pursue if they want Big Ben back in 2021.

However...we explain why the best decision for the Pittsburgh Steelers is to move on from Ben Roethlisberger sooner rather than later.
