Ben Roethlisberger Will Set Team Record This Weekend That Might Never Be Broken

Ben Roethlisberger has been an iron man for the Pittsburgh Steelers. He's about to play his 221st game for the team on Sunday, and that will set a new franchise record, passing Hall-of-Famer Mike Webster.

Roethlisberger would've broken this record last year were it not for an elbow injury that knocked him out of action in Week 2.

He's done a great job bouncing back from that injury this season, though. Through Week 2, Roethlisberger is averaging 270.0 passing yards per game while tossing 5 touchdowns to 1 interception.

If he keeps playing this well, he's going to continue serving as Pittsburgh's quarterback for a long time. This record is going to stand for quite some time – and it might never be broken.

FanDuel Sportsbook has the Steelers as 4-point favorites against the Texans on Sunday.
