The National Football League suspended Pittsburgh Steelers quarterback Ben Roethlisberger for the first 6 games of the 2010 season after violating the league’s personal conduct policy & will have to undergo a “comprehensive behavioral evaluation by professionals”.
Commisioner Roger Goodell ordered the 28-year old two-time Super Bowl winner to stay away from Steelers’ headquarters until he’s cleared by the NFL to re-join the team.
Roethlisberger will begin his 7th NFL season once his suspension is up & is coming off a 2009 campaign that saw him post career-highs in passing completions (337), passing attempts (506), pass completion percentage (66.6%), passing yards (4,328) & passing yards per game (288.5).
