Steelers quarterback Ben Roethlisberger has never asked another NFL player for a jersey. Until Sunday.
Before the Steelers played the Patriots on Sunday, Roethlisberger approached Tom Brady and asked if he could have his jersey.
“I’ve never done this before but I would love to get a jersey,” Roethlisberger said to Brady, as shown on Inside the NFL.
“Sure, let’s do it,” Brady answered.
Roethlisberger told Brady he wanted to be able to display a game-worn Brady jersey in his office.
Brady’s team won on Sunday, as the Patriots usually have against the Steelers: New England is now 9-2 against Pittsburgh with Brady starting. Roethlisberger apparently doesn’t mind being reminded of that while in his office.
