Pittsburgh Steelers want Ben Roethlisberger to return in 2021, team president Art Rooney II says - ESPN

Team president Art Rooney II acknowledged that mutual desire between the Steelers and their longtime quarterback in a statement Wednesday morning.

In a statement to NFL Network on Tuesday night, Roethlisberger's agent, Ryan Tollner, said "we are happy to creatively adjust his contract to help them build the best team possible."

Rooney echoed some of Colbert's sentiments in Wednesday's statement, saying that the sides still have to resolve Roethlisberger's contract situation -- something that has to be done by the open of the new league year on March 17
